Find My Australia

Only in Australia 🇦🇺⛳ 🦘 Teeing off over a mob of about 100 kangaroos… and somehow still finding the fairway without upsetting the locals! 😂 golf

There’s nothing quite like the natural beauty of a humpback whale. Swimming alongside a mother and her calf, watching their gentle movements and the incredible bond between them, was one of those magical moments in nature I’ll never forget. 🐋💙🌊

There’s never a dull moment on the mudflats when the soldier crabs march in. Watching thousands of these tiny crustaceans scoop up mouthfuls of sand is fascinating. They’re not eating the sand itself—they’re extracting the tiny bits of organic matter and nutrients hidden within it. Once they’ve taken what they need, they leave behind neat little round pellets of clean sand, each one a tiny reminder of nature’s incredible recycling system. It’s amazing how such small creatures play such an important role in keeping our coastal ecosystems healthy.

I thought I’d made a new friend when this curious echidna came over to inspect me… one sniff of my feet and it decided there were better things to do! 🤣🦔

The Australian lace monitor is one of the true kings of the bush. Patient, powerful and always on the prowl, it spends its days searching for anything from eggs and insects to small animals and carrion. Spot one in the wild and you’re looking at one of Australia’s most impressive reptiles—an ancient survivor that rules the bush with quiet confidence and reminds us that nature is always watching.

Nature’s artwork, thousands of years in the making. These incredible sandstone formations, known as tafoni or honeycomb weathering, have been slowly sculpted by water, salt and wind, creating a cave wall that almost looks like a giant sponge. It’s amazing what time can carve from solid rock.

There’s something strangely exciting about walking through an old railway tunnel. The darkness, the echoes and the history make it feel almost haunted… but that’s all part of the adventure.

One of life’s greatest freedoms is simply getting outdoors and enjoying the incredible places around us.

I started my walk at Flagstaff Point in Wollongong, heading north along the spectacular coastline towards Coalcliff, stopping at all the ocean rock pools along the way for a refreshing swim.
Floating in those crystal-clear pools, surrounded by the sound of the ocean, was a great reminder that the best adventures are often the simplest ones.
