It’s the end of the road. The road from Cairns has led here, and has now stopped. The land ends at this remote ‘Outback by the Sea’ town. People sip their drinks under the palm trees watching the sun turn to orange and then red over the sea, the mangroves and the emerging sand bars. The end of the world vibe. I love it.
The road here saw the vegetation slowly disappear as I pedalled through low grasslands and then salt pans.
And then the road rises and I pop out to a view of the sea.
The cycling day was short, but my body decided it was time to be lazy. And what a chill place to be lazy.
