Coastal villages have a charm all of their own. For some of us it had been over two years since we last visited Iluka, the village my in-laws had retired to and where we had frequently holidayed.
The exercise park is a recent addition, the Iluka-Yamba Ferry a familiar sight, the little wooden boat on Iluka Bay an unexpected delight. We detoured via the Iluka Bluff beach and lookout on our way home. A very beautiful winter's day out with hardly another person to be seen!

What beautiful photos Karen, particularly the wooden rowing boat. It's ages since I went to Iluka, thanks for the inspiration to return.
The first one i like the most, the colors are brilliant.
I have been back to your photo of the little wooden boat on instagram so many times - just so drawn to it - it oozes calm!
Beautiful coastal scenery and images. I love the boat and the last shot of the beach! Neat capture of the wave! Have a happy weekend!
Fotos maravilhosas! bjs, aproveitem!chica
I agree with everyone. The little boat is a top shot.
Beautifully there and certainly it was nice to visit the place where they lived in-laws and where you were on vacation. It was a time of memories. Wonder is the first picture. Regards.
Oh yes, don't they, tho?! So happy you were able to return and spend some time :) We have resident white pelicans all along the Missouri River in Montana! It is always funny to me to see a platoon of them flying low over the trees, out here in the middle of nowhere....no ocean for many many many miles! But they live here! Beautiful photos Karen!
A beautiful day and lovely pics. I do quite like the beach in winter.
Oh, yes!! What a beautiful day indeed and such a gorgeous place!! I do love the beach! All of your captures are breathtaking, Karen!! Thank you so much for sharing these! Hope you and your family are enjoying a lovely weekend!!
Love the photo of the little boat!!!
the first one is great !
O Karen, I would just love your winters I'm sure! The village you visited looks so pretty and delightful! And your first picture, wow, would be so pretty as a blow-up to put on the wall.
Have a lovely weekend,
Marian
This looks like such a beautiful place to be, Karen.
It looks so wonderfully peaceful.
Time for you to enjoy some down time and this seems just the place. No doubt filled with many happy memories.
Beautiful photo’s Karen. Iluka, a very special place.
I enjoyed all your coastal photos, Karen - so different from my land-locked landscape. I especially enjoyed the trio overlooking the spray on the bluff.
Lovely images. That first one is stunning!
Karen, that first picture is just amazing. How peaceful it looks.
Have a lovely Sunday (or Monday )

So glad that you got to go for this visit. I love your photos as this looks like such a beautiful place, but that first one of the dory ?? and its reflection is awesome. HOpe you are well and keeping that wonderful attitude that you have!
I wonder why the words coastal village are so appealing?
Your first photo of the canoe is beyond words fabulous!
The colors in the canoe shot are amazing! What a beautiful day out for your family.
Lovely photos Karen. Looks like a great place to holiday - superb beach and fun watching the waves crashing on the rocks.
Love the photo of the wooden boat. It's so simple and striking in composition.
