We're camped at Dunally Golf Club and was very peaceful when we turned up, then all the families arrived. So we are not spending as much time relaxing at camp. (We're in the bar at the golf club instead).
It's been a great base for sightseeing the Tasman Peninsula. Saturday we visited the Tessellated Pavement at Eaglehawk Neck, Tasman Arch, Devils Kitchen, and the coastal walk to Waterfall Bay. Our last stop for the day was Remarkable Cave. We had plans to do a lot more but ran out of time so decided to stay another day.
Sunday we followed the convict tourist route which took us to the historical coal mines. The site was established in the 1830s. The worst of the worst convicts were sent here to mine the coal, it was said that the mine was a more dreadful place than Port Arthur. Mining continued until around 1870. We thought that this would be just a stopover but it took us three hours to explore the site. The afternoon was spent wandering along the water's edge on White Sands Beach.
