Dolphin and whale watching tour in Nelson Bay and no cost 4 WD tour on Stockton Bight (01.06.06)

After the second night at Anna Bay we drove to Nelson Bay to do our booked 3 ½ hours dolphin and whale watching tour with an “Imagine” sailing boat. While shipping out to the open ocean we could lie down in a net at the front of the boat. Dirk was practising his role in “Titanic”. We saw heaps of dolphins playing around and also a starfish. Unfortunately we couldn´t spot a whale:-(!
After the cruise we drove to Stockton Bight (the longest moving sand dunes) to take a look at the Sygna wreck. We started walking to the beach because only 4 WD cars could go there. On our way we tried to hitchhike but the passing car did not stop. Some metres further the same car had to get off some air for driving in the sand and Dirk asked the driver how fast the wreck was away. He told us that it will be about an hour return walking. So we went on. After five more minutes the same car passed us and the driver asked us if he could give us a lift. So we got a 4 WD to the wreck and through the huge sand dunes for free. Driving there and seeing only sand it seemed as if we were in the desert and if we would have never got there on our own without this lift.
