sign on a rock...

memorial plaque on a rock at Queenscliff Lighthouse Reserve above Queenscliff beach...
The sign commemorates the sea voyage of Paul Caffyn in 1981...
He made the first solo attempt to circumnavigate Australia by sea kayak...
Paul left this area 28th December, 1981 and on 23rd December 1982,
returned to this same beach after completing the 17,400km voyage.
(The Dreamtime Voyage title represents a nod to our aboriginal peoples and their Dreaming culture)

The pier in the foreground is extraordinarily long, and is used by pilot boats and fisherman...
The next pier is the old passenger terminal pier...
In the background, the Searoad ferry is just visible, heading to a pier near the tower on the left...
