Chillax at Mudjimba Beach

After a hard day's work, I took a stroll along Mudjimba beach (only 1.5km from my place)


This deserted beach is mainly patronized by the few locals staying around this area - I have yet to see any other Asian along this coast.


The small rock island 200m offshore is called Mudjimba Island(aka Old Woman Island).

There are two Aboriginal tales about Mudjimba Island.
The name Mudjimba refers to an Aboriginal legend in which a woman became stranded on the island, where she lived into old age.
The other story is about the creation of Mudjimba Island. There were two men: Coolum and Ninderry, who fought over a woman called Maroochy. Ninderry knocked Coolum’s head off and it landed in the sea to become Mudjimba Island.
