- I went on an amazing camping trip to North Stradbroke Island during the week to complete a bucket list item of mine which is swimming with the sharks. The reefs off Stradbroke island are named in the top 10 dive sites in Australia. As everyone would know I love sharks and they are incredible animals that don't need to be feared as much as they are. diving here you will need some experience as there is a strong current especially at Mantra Boomie but definitely worth it, I went diving with Mantra Lodge Scuba Centre and they are a great company to go through.
Spent the first night camping at flinders beach campsite F and it was very well protected by the wind. the 2nd night camped at Main beach, which was a little windier, but the campsite was virtually empty compared to flinders beach that had pretty much every site booked. the cicadas on main beach were quite loud but as the night went on, they quieted down.
If you are still wanting to experience wildlife and the reef but don't have a diving license, I went paddleboarding and snorkeling of flinders parade in Dunwich, and there was a surprising amount of coral in the area. and before anyone asks no I did not see a crocodile while over there, i seen lots of posted on Facebook about a crocodile sighting and even if there was a crocodile, I don't think it possess much of a threat.

Looks great
The diving looks great. l have done Fraser but Morton and Stradbroke need visiting.
I'm the other way around I've done moreton and stradbroke but not been to Fraser yet haha
@@bia4x4 My advice with Fraser, for what it's worth, is to do Sandy Cape but leave plenty of time for the west coast.. Good snorkeling, calm and not shark infested.
Great video Bia! 🎉 beautiful beach’s ! Awesome pajero. I’m curious about the camping tent ⛺ don't you like RTTs?
Hey thank you, I have looked into getting a roof top but at this stage I don't really need/want one, fingresses crossed if I do a bit of travelling in the future I will. But the 2 downsides about them I'm my opinion they make the car very top heavy and put the center of gravity off which I don't really like when I'm out 4wding and my cars on a lean, and it will add a bit to fuel economy, so just for the time being I'm happy chucking a Swag on top and it only takes 5 mins to put up, and I can also set up a camp spot and leave, but with the rtt I would have to pack it back up if I went for a short drive. But at stradbroke it came I handy setting up the Swag early in the morning then still having the whole day to explore and knowing I already had the camp set up/reserved.
Really excellent video, very enjoyable. A bit more context with subtitles or voice over would have been great. Awesome work, best to date!
Thank you! Next video I'll do a voice over
