Sunset Caravan Park
Edition 10
By Arch Armstrong

G'Day Mates!!

Hello friends and welcome to the June newsletter our 10th edition of the Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park newsletter.

What an exciting time it has been over May, and June is proving to be a boomer. Many of our friends have returned from last year and new ones have arrived to spend their first time with us in Karumba taking in the mood, the scenery, the fishing, the relaxing, fun and fabulous weather. Just have a look at the Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park website, www.sunsetcp.com.au and have a look at the smiling faces and you will understand what it is like to be in Karumba where the outback meets the sea. Just have a look at George Liddicoat's great Barramundi catch,Click John Wisby's superb Barramundi, Click and Andrew Doaks huge Spanish Mackerel Click to name just a few of the many great catches we get at Karumba.

A few comments made in newspapers and electronic media recently.

Karumba coast barra fishing "mind blowing"

"Mind blowing fishing was an understatement as we continually had our reel drags smoking with barras pulling drag."

"We experienced some of the most spectacular barra fishing I have ever witnessed."

"The 1.27 m giant landed after a long battle was put back after we took photos."

"We got eaten out of the boat by big grunter and the crabs were so thick it was almost ludicrous."

"After 45 minutes and nearly getting spooled 3 times I finished up landing it on the beach 100 yards away from where I hooked up."

"Mate, I have been coming here for 15 years and made some great friends. Me and the missus just relax, have a few drinks, enjoy our friends, the weather and watch the stars at night. Beats the hell out of freezing your butt off down south I can tell you."

"The Sunset Caravan Park!! Mate, this is the best park in Australia bar none."

Roads/Access to Karumba.

From time to time I get asked what are the roads like to Karumba. Friends I can tell you there is absolutely no problem with driving, riding, boating or flying to Karumba. In fact guests come up on Motor Bikes, Push Bikes, small cars, big cars, buses and 4 wheel drives and some come by boat. They pull boats, trailers, caravans and campers. Apart from Bourke and Wills I don't think anyone has tried to walk it. Maybe someone should take up the challenge. The roads are very good and continually improving so what ever you drive you will not have a problem.

Excellent Websites.

Now as you know, every now and then I tell about a website well worth having a look at and people who give great value and service. And I can tell you I am very fussy who I recommend so they have got to be the very best.

This month it is a company called Forex Commercial Ltd and their website is: http://www.foreignexchange.co.nz/

Just a reminder. September and October are just around the corner and either month is a great time to be in Karumba. The fish are still biting, the weather is great and you get to see some fabulous sunsets. October especially is a great month. Temperature around 27 degrees just about every day. The Northern lights start coming in and the Barras are still running. Plenty of other species to catch also. So get your bookings in now to avoid disappointment. Come up and stay at the most famous caravan park in Australia, in the outback, where the outback meets the sea. The only place with access right on the beach between Cairns and Darwin. From the park the beach is just the other side of the road. Ring, fax or email us as follows or check out our website.

Quotations for the Month of June.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.

A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining, but wants it back the minute it begins to rain

If you cannot lift the load off another's back, do not walk away. Try to lighten it.

Regards
Arch Armstrong
Oh!! And have a good day!!


One our our regulars with a great Barramundi.
