Kingston and Boronia Beaches 6th June 2018

Kingston and Boronia Beaches 6th June 2018

Starting from Brown's Road end of Kingston Beach and then following the coast to Boronia beach. Return via paths and roads.

All set to go. A beautiful frosty but sunny morning



Kingston Beach with Boronia Beach in the distance.






 Some debris from recent storms still waiting for collection






and after "grooming"

 
 
 
Some took the footpath rather than the beach.







Along the beach to the Sailing Club.




Before converging





The start of Boronia Beach Track (and architecture)




Mid track























Boronia Reserve
 
























Looking north and south, gorgeous sky and coastline
 






The track can be hazardous but the intrepid Ramblers negotiate all obstacles


it needs to be recorded for posterity







Arriving at...Boronia Beach



Some gaze at the views





others investigate the geology






Little Penguins (also known as Fairy Penguins) nest in this area.







The birds need a helping hand and artificial burrows have been provided..



 
Local artists have been busy
 
 
 

 Some damage to fencing, storm?


 
 
and time to leave


 and head for lunch
