Since these waters are protected from all but west and north-westerly winds they're generally very calm waters and allow for fast and easy cruising. About 40kms north along the beach from Moon point is Wathumba Creek which is one of the most beautiful spots with white sand and gin-clear water. Once again the access to the anchorage is very shallow at low tide, but once inside there is not problem for boats up to 15 metres. Naturally this area is ideal for trailerboats and it's not an uncommon sight to see two or three fishing rigs rafted up together in the creek. Certainly Wathumba Creek is a great place to camp and fish, there are toilets and cold shower blocks and plenty of good fresh water available.
Fishing here is also pretty good.
My daughter Melissa caught five nice bream and a whiting in just half an hour when we camped there last December. As for timing the winter months are best for bream while the summer months are good for whiting and crabs. Offshore from Wathumba is some reefs and it is possible to catch Squire and snapper at different times. This area is also a great place to catch mackerel and kings. As you move north about 10kms from Wathumba Creek you come to the famous whale watching spot of Platypus Bay.
