Day two meant heading west across the island, up and over a big hill on our bikes, to Montague Harbour. The downhill was the fun part of course, and our reward was a tasty lunch on the deck of the marina cafe, looking out at the boats.
Then we explored the road to the
Montague Harbour park and campground - on the way we saw this sign:

How cool would it be to say "turn at the purple bicycle" |
Once we'd followed a trail from one side of the campground to the other, we came out at the lagoon, and onto a long shell beach. We watched a baby seal swimming close to shore, but when he saw us he headed further down the beach, and came ashore for a bit - didn't have a chance to get a photo.

The next morning we arrived at the ferry terminal early, so had time to stop at the bakery, which opens at 6 a.m., for a coffee and snack. What a great getaway! We only saw a small part of this beautiful island, and would love to go back again!

Their cinnamon buns are the best! |
