Back in the day this was a longer working pier where coal, sugar and timber were being exported. Now the tourists and fishermen just wander up and back. The tides are wide here. We explored the sand flats for over an hour and the soldier crabs are out there in the thousands. We also came back to the main shore to get up onto the pier. The breeze out there was strong so we changed the lunch idea to sitting on the foreshore rather than out on the pier. The distances were tricky. We have walked 20000 steps today and the pier itself is 800m long in its shortened version.
