Recently our visitors enjoyed watching a mother and baby Koala climbing up and down the huge gum tree at the back of Kookaburra Cabin from their balcony on Possum Lodge. They can also often be seen in the gum tree beside Possum Lodge and also down the track to the beach. If you hear growling noises in the trees at night this is usually the Koala's mating call. The majestic Pelicans can be found down at the Jetty where the Boat Hire is especially when the trawlers come in. They can also be spotted along the miles of unspoilt beaches.
Dolphins swim past daily.
They can be seen mostly upon sunset. Recently they swam and frolicked at the end of Toompany Street and our guests were able to wade in the water with them. If you havn't already seen the photo on our Pictures page, have a look, this photo was taken on the beach at Amity Point and this dolphin did jump clean out of the water, a very rare site. This picture is also on the new brochure. Kookaburra Cabin has been aptly named after the Kookaburra's that have been nesting in the huge gum behind it for over 25 years.
