A Sandy Beach Almanac



You've landed at Sandy Beach, NSW, Australia: Lat. -30.15331, Long. 153.19960, UT +10:00 – local map & zoom Google map. I live in a cabin on this beach, 25 kilometres north of the traffic and shops of Coffs Harbour, 600 km north of Sydney. My intention is to post observations of Nature and life within 1 km (1,000 paces) of my South Pacific home.

Latitude, with gratitude


I got a friendly email from a local man, Fritz Brzon, whom I haven't met, who kindly informed me of the correct Sandy co-ordinates for latitude and longitude, which I have now corrected in the header. He also pointed me in the direction of this site which has the software with which he made me a map (click thumbnail). I would guess that I'm actually a second or two of latitude to the east (beachward) of where my correspondent has drawn the co-ordinates. Many thanks, Fritz.
