I skipped breakfast and headed south to a beach that was about 2km away. I thought I would stop for breakfast there.\u00a0 It was a bit choppy on the water, but I got to the beach. It was a slightly difficult landing as there was a big bank of seaweed on the beach, and it was a struggle to land because I hit the seaweed bank and started and taking on water.<\/p>\n<p>It was a beach with an area behind it that I could camp on. So I decided today would be a rest day. I set up camp, has breakfast, and then climbed the almost cliff along a track that had obviously been used before. I got to the top, walked around 200m to find I was inside ABC mine and port area, with a prominent sign saying no camping. I thought it&#8217;s too late, I have put up the tent. I was very invisible down behind the beach.\u00a0 I then walked the 5km into town along the Walk the Yorke track, the first part on the road, and then along the cliff track. I wandered around town, going to the IGA, and then getting lunch at the pub, where I also charged my camping battery pack. Mid afternoon I walked back to camp, and lounged around the rest of the day.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_76\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-76\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-76\" src=\"http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-1024x771.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-1024x771.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-300x226.jpg 300w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-768x578.jpg 768w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-1536x1157.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-2048x1542.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260219_231329736-1200x904.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-76\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Camped behind the beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_78\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-78\" src=\"http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-1024x771.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-1024x771.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-300x226.jpg 300w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-768x578.jpg 768w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-1536x1157.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-2048x1542.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/gregspurgin.net\/kayak-yorke-peninsula\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/PXL_20260220_053629204-1-1200x904.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">View south along the beach.
