This one is for the Fraser regulars or someone who's been on the island in recent times.
I'm going to be staying at Kingfisher Bay on Fraser next week for a couple of days and I'd really, really like to get as far north as possible. The kicker is that the high tide is in the middle of the day so I need to be parked by 10:00 am, 10:30 at the latest for example and then can't get moving south until 2:00 pm or so..
I'm happy to roll out the door as early as needs be but my question is how much time should I allow? I've heard it can be an hour trip across the island to the ocean beach at the best of times, then I have choke points like Eli Creek Yidney Rocks, Indian Head etc to negotiate. What sort of time would be reasonable to allow for the beach section under the current conditions, or am I being too ambitious this time round?
Appreciate any feedback.
Cheers,
Dave
