23 February 2012 - Torquay and Bells Beach

We visited tourist information first thing and also wandered around some of the surf shops in Torquay. With it being the home of Rip Curl and surfing in general, you would think things may be a bit cheaper than normal but this was not the case so we did not pick up any new boardies.

We headed to the front beach where Em and Lachie did the usual playing in sand and water as well as looking for treasure. In the afternoon we checked out Bells Beach. It was certainly not swimming conditions as the surf was pretty big so we wandered on the beach and the kids found some sand mounds to jump off which kept them amused.
