Perfect weather

The weather here in Mission Beach has been fantastic !!! Yesterday i spent all day lazying around the beach reading a good book. Hopefully i'll be out in the boat cruising around the islands tomorrow.

Its another magical day in Mission Beach. I was travelling along the Mission Beach/Tully road today and there in an old banana paddock was a father Cassowary and 3 of his little chicks!!! Its was such an amazing sight. Mum of cause would have buggered off to let dad take care of the babies ....as female Cassowaries do. Oh dear...they really do have the life!!!

Farewell to an Era

It is a weird sensation to own, love & then sell a business........ I have had the best times at the Mission Beach Information Station.....but eventually there comes a time when you are riding the crest of the wave and realise the ride is almost over and the time has come to try something new. I am thrilled that the new owner, Carolyn has come along with such skill and enthusiasm. Carolyn is going to be a fantastic for the Mission Beach Information Station, she is committed to quality service and is a hard worker. On behalf of the old owners, Steve and Kerrie, I leave this best wishes blog to Carolyn, her new trainee Tamara and to the team - Kallina and Leanne who worked so wonderfully alongside Steve and I. Here's Cheers to the Future! And I am not crying!!!!!

Going on a holdiay

Its always hard to leave Mission Beach because it is such a great place to live and visit, but this time I think I can do it as I'm really excited about visiting my friend in Papua New Guinea. I will be missing out on meeting the number of visitors who come to Mission Beach during the school holidays, I hope they have as good a time here as I know I will in PNG!

Saving those memories

When your on holidays you take so many photos, particularly now with the digital cameras, you can just go crazy. When your visiting Mission Beach you can come into the Information Station and save those memories to CD or DVD so you do not lose them, you can even print them if you would like to send some photos home to family and friends.

I'm Gonna Miss My Brother!!!

I was fortunate enough to grow up in Mission Beach with my 3 Younger Brothers, who now at 18, 14 and 12 are all taller than me and can pick me up and throw me around like I was a football. Now the time has come for Matty,18, to leave the nest with his lovely girlfriend. And I have just realized how much I am going to miss the little rat bag! Party Time Saturday Night!! WOOO

The sun is shining in beautiful Mission Beach for the first time in weeks. The local dive company Calypso Dive says that today will be ideal conditions for diving. So come on out to the reef for a day you will never forget on The Great Barrier Reef. Mission Beach being the closest town on the Queensland coast to the reef makes it the ideal place to launch from. Happy sailing!!

A missing mullet in Mission Beach

There is one less guy running around with a mullet in Mission Beach today. Sometimes when you have too much to drink you do things you regret the next morning, and in this case in happened with a pair of scissors. Say goodbye to the mullet!

Eating out in Mission Beach

I'm a big fan of eating out, breakfast, lunch or dinner doesn't matter. Living in Mission Beach there are so many options. Eating alone, casual catchup or to celebrate a special occasion all are covered, from fish and chips, thai food, italian, pub meal and much much more, so get out there and check out your food options, you won't be disappointed.

The Rain is Back !!

Just when it looked like the fine weather in Mission Beach was here to stay. . . it started to bucket down with rain !! Let's hope it doesn't last too long.

Book or not to book ahead

How organised do you need to be when your travelling? I like to be a bit organised and go with the flow as well, but one of the risks with going with the flow is that sometimes you miss out. Here at the Mission Beach Information Station we often come across accommodation and tours that are booked out for a day or even longer. When your on a tight schedule this can sometimes be a bit frustrating, so if there is a particular hostel you want to stay in or a boat you want to sail on then come in and let us help you book them.
