Posted by Linerberry (Sumner, Christchurch, New Zealand) on 3 December 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

After Helly and I left Dunedin and the Albatross behind we continued down south (on the South Island). We stopped in Blaclutha to refuel and grab some more supplies as we were told there were no more petrol stations and very few shops until Invercargil. We were heading along the Southren Scenic Route to Curio Bay. On the way we stopped at this remarkable beach! I can't remember the name but there was literally no one there!!!!

Don't forget****** "Silly Tuesday" ******where you can post anything that is silly, funny, daft or just makes you laugh!!!
Its a family affair.....

Wow, a completely deserted beach! Great landscape for a walk, the sea is so beautiful and the beach surrounded by lush greens, great shot!

I have never spent much time in the Catlins and some of the walkways are meant to be good! This certainly entices me to want to go!

After seeing all these shots... I wish that I had gone to NZ in Jan of this year instead of the week in Australia (the original trip was a week to NZ but I had asked the company we got this trip from if I could switch to the last week of the Grand Prize of the last week in Australia)... we won a week in NZ and Grand Prize was 1 in NZ and 1 week in Australia... oh well... next time...
