Mourilyan Harbour to Fitzroy Island - September 09
















With a change to rougher weather we headed back to the mainland and the protection of Mourilyan Harbour which is not much more than a very large sugar wharf and a few moored boats. Once the weather cleared we enjoyed a fast sail towards Fitzroy Island which is just south of Cairns. Our major problem was trying to determine what was Island and what was Australia as Fitzroy Island blends in with the coast. Fitzroy has a fantastic new resort which is sadly closed and in possession of the bank. A great secluded spot so close to all that tourism!
