Go back to my first Norfolk blog where the focus was on some of the history of Norfolk Island around Kingston.
In this blog I will take you around the sea scapes of the island to the various bays, lookouts and other sites.
The island was first visited by the English sailor Captain Cook on October 10 in 1774 in HMS Resolution.

In the first blog, I spent some time in Kingston and upload some images from in the cemetery. Just over the dunes is Cemetery Bay where the following were taken over several visits.

The next three photos were taken at Two Chimneys Reserve where we were lucky to see some Masked boobies flying past. See Blog 3

| I zoomed in on "turtle rock" |
But wait, there's more!
A lovely, varied collection of seascapes, John. Makes me want to hop on a plane and go back!
