Lugger Bay
I was lucky enough to visit a house that overlooks Lugger Bay in Mission Beach. WOW the view was spectacular, you can see Dunk Island, South Mission Beach and at night you can also see the lights of North Mission Beach, can I say it again WOW. The other great thing is the visits by the cassowaries and wallaby's to the front garden. It truly was a great spot, I just wish I could go and stay there for a week, it would be such a treat indeed.

Greyhound Bus Timetable changes
From time to time Greyhound changes its bus timetables for Mission Beach. The website link from our site has the most up to date bus times. We have also sent out an email to all key businesses. The changes are not huge but it is always helpful to be kept up to date. And we try to be helpful kinda guys!

Dunk Island Staff
Staff from Dunk Island love to visit the Mission Beach Information Station on their days off. We have great internet, faxing services, digital photo processing and a team of helpful staff to serve them. When they come off the 'rock', they often need time & a bit of hand to adjust to main land life!

Sultry
Love the word sultry, it is just so right for our weather today. We are hot, sticky, humid and tropical. Just what you expect in Mission Beach at the start of the wet season. Normally you will have great sultry days and then heavy tropical rains overnight at this time of the year. Personally I love it!

Transporting visitors to Mission Beach
One of my favourite jobs with Sea Patrol is transporting people to Mission Beach. I love telling them all about the area and the great things they can do while they are visiting. It really is a fabulous and easy part of the job, because I'm always having a good time here and hope that they will too.

too cute, how do they survive
What is it with the cute young lads? How do they survive? We just had Mr 19 year old English cutie who has been in Australia for only 5 days and has already lost 2 plastic cards...... he has $50 in his pocket until he can get to a bank. The nearest bank to Mission Beach is in Tully, a $20 bus fare, and it's not open until Monday. What's the bet one of us softens up and organises a lift for him, we have already sourced the cheapest accommodation and suggested that he asks if he can mow the lawn for beer money! Good luck to him and all the other cuties out there!
