First day was from Karen&#8217;s place in Mannum to Port Augusta Caravan Park, the Discovery Park. Second day was from Port Augusta to Port Lincoln, because we couldn&#8217;t get a campsite at Coffin Bay Caravan Park. So by the time we got to Coffin Bay on Sunday morning it was late morning before we started to load the kayaks. We jammed the kayaks full of gear, and lots of water, because we couldn&#8217;t resupply with water anywhere but Coffin Bay. We set off in fairly reasonable conditions, and headed west to Yangie Bay. We had a campsite booked at Big Yangie but we had been told that the locals just camped where ever they liked in the national park, and that was sort of accepted. We got to a spot just north of the entrance to Yangie Bay and made camp. There was a great sunset that night. We didn&#8217;t see anyone around.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_46\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a
