Fox River caught alot of whitebait there. How are the catches this year?

MIcheal Hunt

Sandra Arnott

Noeline McCaughan
Woodpecker Bay, so many great memories of holidays at the batch during the war, mussels for tea, cooked in a kerosene tin down on the beach. Exploring the caves, scrambling around the rock pools trying to catch crabs. Heaven couldn't have been better to us kids.

Heather Newby
dad said the biggest Pauas hes ever seen are in a cave in the island accessed from Woodpecker bay at low tide.. but the trouble is.. the sea lions will chase you

Gertrude Ding
Heather Newby im glad you werent harmed, it's a good story and im glad those paua have fearsome guardians
Mary Fenemor
Our dear Cousin Bill, lived down there somewhere.

Mary Fenemor Bill lived in the two story place on the right at Barrytown. A clever man.

Mary Fenemor

Arthur Bass
Super and I had a good discussion about Bill one day. Very enlightening for both.

Mary Fenemor
Arthur Bass I could only imagine

Arthur Bass
And that's where it will stay. I would have like to get a bit of his greenstone carving but no chance anymore.

Check: Is this Woodpecker Bay with Fox River centre? Any indication of the year of the photo?
