CONVENT BEACH YAMBA TO SPOOKY BEACH ANGOURIE

Convent beach was previously known as Boat Harbour Beach. In the old days, it was where the river pilots rowed out to meet the sail boats coming to collect cedar logs felled from the upper Clarence River.
Paddling out from Convent beach, we pass by Main beach, home of the Surf Lifesaving Assoc. of Yamba, and along to Turners beach towards the break wall. We then turn south, paddling around Lovers Point, along Pippie Beach and with a little luck come across a school of Dolphins often seen in the area. Enjoying the feel of the swell under our kayaks and taking in the scenery, we head south, past Flat Rock (Barrie Rock), Miners Rocks, Green Point Cove and around Green Point, a traditional Aboriginal meeting site still of importance to the local people.
We come into Spooky Beach for a refreshment break, a swim or maybe a throw of the Frisbee! Back in the kayaks we paddle around Spooky Point, the famous Angourie Blue Pools, to Angourie Point and its internationally renowned surf break experiencing a Surfers view of the headland. We paddle out around Angourie Point, casting our eyes south, to see countless beaches, coves and headlands to be explored on another paddling day. Returning to Spooky Beach where the courtesy vehicle awaits.
