Red Island
Red Island is just across the waters from the end of Seisia wharf.
And if you have a boat it is super easy to visit.
Just take off from the Seisia boat ramp and you are there within minutes,
... and needless to say, you don't need more than a tinny.
Late in the year the waters are calm, but the breeze can also pick up quickly.
Once across you can pull up almost anywhere, like on this southern beach,
... and enjoy the views towards Loyalty Beach,
... and towards Seisia (you can see on the photo below just how close the wharf is).
On the island, you can also see some history,
... as the area has been through gold rushes, Second World War and finally the settlement by Saibai islanders in the mid 1950s.
You can also ride the boat around the island,
... and discover its different beaches and bays.
After which you get back to Seisia Wharf,
... which is usually busy with fishing,
... as you pull up at the boat ramp,
... if you are at the right time (as opposed to us here),
... there could well be a beautiful sunset :-)
