Early Morning in Urunga
Urunga is the place where the Kalang and Bellinger Rivers join the
Pacific Ocean. The charming town is just a 20-minute drive south of Coffs Harbour and 15 minutes from Bellingen.The town is well known for its waterways and peaceful layed back lifestyle. Swimming, Fishing, Boating and golfing are just some of the good things the visitors and locals of Urunga get up to.
The foreshores area is one of my favorite places and I spend a great deal of time there, sporting facilities of golf and bowling and of course fishing. The local hotel is old and retains some of its old world charm. A couple of cafés adorn the sidewalk.
Urunga Boardwalk at Dawn
Walking out on the boardwalk across the mangroves of
the river estuary to the beach is a daily ritual for hundreds each day. To get to the entrance you drive into the Urunga Heads Caravan Park and follow the road straight ahead to the bottom.
Urunga Railway Station in 2013
The trains still stop here in Urunga but the original railway station is now gone sadly, there is a sterile platform and shelter affair now replacing the original.Images @ Melonpopzdropz Flickr
