Karumba

                                          Fishing boat at Karumba
                                         Barramundi at Karumba Fish farm
                                           Sunset at Karumba
We arrived at the Gulf - stayed in Karumba and drove out to the" Point" where we enjoyed a beer at the Karumba Hotel - sitting in the beer garden overlooking the Gulf and enjoyed the sunset.
The Barramundi Fish Farm was a short drive from the caravan park and after watching a dvd of how the fish "fingerlings" were put into several fishing spots around the area, we looked at the fish. The fish were not very interested in being fed - apparently as it was Winter there, they were happy to just swim around the ponds and then eventually they took the food - they just "sucked" the small fish - they have no teeth.

The Sunset Hotel at Karumba beckoned us for another night and we enjoyed a nice meal whilst watching a most beautiful sunset ( again) on the Gulf of Carpentaria
