STRADDIE!!!! HOW GOOD IS IT!!
Seriously this is one of the best places you can visit in the East Coast of Australia.
We love it here and have been over a few times to explore. This time we only have a few nights to enjoy and catch up with mates but it's still amazing!!
This time we stay at AMITY POINT for a few nights and hang out with some mates. A few waves, beers and good times.
Cheers guys.

Our most watched Episode - z • BEACH CAMPS ON THE NIN...
It all started when…
In December 2015 we packed up and hit the road for what we thought would be a 12 month Lap of Oz. Fast forward 7 years and we decided to create a video series of our travels to show you all what it’s like to live life on the road!!
Cheers everyone, safe travels.

You keep my travelling fire burning 🔥 We've just started travelling full-time, and i questioned how you guys enjoyed it for 7 years. Some days with the kids are hard and no air con in 40° heat waves 🥵 Killer! You made 7 years on tube look easy!

Straddie is definitely the best island in Australia. Been camping on Flinders for the past 20 plus years and absolutely love it. You would be surprised how good it is in winter to. If you get good weather, it's warm days, cool nights, but so good. Can definitely recommend camping in winter on straddie. And yeah, it's best to avoid the crowds and go in off-peak times.

Love Amity Point. Biggest sites on the island. Great pumping for yabbies on low tide around Dunwich where the ferry comes in. Bull sharks are around off the camp site so you just have to be aware not afraid. Dolphins in the arvo before they head to their free feed at Tangas. Myora Springs is a beautiful place for a swim and explore on any tide

School in Hervey Bay. You must be fairly close to me. I'm in Maryborough. If the family likes a feed of good quality fish and chips, try Migaloo's at the Urangan Pier. Afterwards, go for a walk out to the end of the pier. They get some good size fish out there depending on the time of year.

Hi mate, not sure about the samil, I went a $250fronius primo 3.0 from market place matched to 10/330w jinkos Definitely think the fronius victron relationship was worth it, all connected with lan cable, cerbo throttles up n down the frequency of the fronius as needed, was a bit daunting at first but got there in the end

Another great video. I’ve been following for a while and trying to work out where you decided to make home base. From the video, it looks like Hervey Bay. We are Aussies who live in USA but are contemplating returning home to Oz, and Hervey Bay is up there on our list of locations. Interested to know if you have made Hervey Bay home base and whether you have a video where you explain the reasons for that? Cheers.
