Hervey Bay, located on the southeast coast of Queensland Australia and lying just off the magnificent Frazer Island, the largest sand island in the world, is a popular vacation location for those in the know. Nestled against a protected bay on the edge of the Coral Sea, Hervey Bay is slow to awake with only the first sun rays and one single lit window watching my approach.
The sand, a cast iron grey, holds it's shape as I pass, resilient before the coming day and rising tide.
Turning away from the brightening sky I caught the jetty at the western end of the beach folding out into the calm water, appearing to sneak away from the disappearing moon.
But it's inevitable that the white light fills the day and brings the bay to life.
And the bay has the last word.
