Dunk Island (part two)

Our first afternoon at Dunk Island was spent exploring the resort and generally relaxing. 

The weather was warm, but cloudy, and there was some drizzle which developed into rain by the evening. However it was peaceful watching the tide come in and also watching the brush turkeys wandering across the lawn outside our building. 

Dinner was at the Beachcomber Restaurant and we were glad of the large umbrella that we had found in our room as we made our way in the rain to the restaurant.

A feature of the resort was the food. We had breakfast and dinner at the Beachcomber Restaurant and lunch by the pool overlooking the beach.

Breakfast was a buffet with a variety of cereals, fruit, bread and pastries as well as a selection of eggs, bacon sausages etc for those who are that way inclined. Dinner on some evenings was a la carte while on the other evenings a themed buffet was provided. While we were there we experienced the seafood buffet, an Asian buffet and an Australian buffet. The food was good and we enjoyed sitting in the open sided restaurant overlooking the pool and Brammo Bay as we ate our meal. Each morning we were visited by a small honey eater who hopped along the wire of the balcony.

Sunset over the beach.

Lights on the edge of the footpath helped us find our way back to our rooms at night.
