Back over the 'ford' waterhole to the Bamaga Bypass Road to head north. Vin covered the nose of the car with a tarp as advised & made the crossing without any support - our hero!

| Time for the tarp |
 |
| That water crossing was deep |
Crossed over the Jardine River via vehicle ferry, then bounced along over some of the worst corrugations so far. Stopped in Bamaga (northern most town) for some bolts & $2.28/L diesel!!!

| Zip ties didn't stay - round two! |

Drove to the nearby seaside town of Seisa where we ate our lunch amongst the palm trees.

Another 25kms north & we arrived at our oasis - Punsand Bay resort. Managed to book the 'penthouse suite' of campsites - right at the end with the creek next to us facing the white sandy beach.

Some of us went for a swim in the pool, then we ate fantastic pizzas in the rustic 'Corrugation Bar'. Chatted to the friendly owners, staff & people who we keep seeing along the road & listened to some 4wd stories. Great night!

| Really good pizza |
