STANLEY - POPULATION: 458

MONDAY 13 - TUESDAY 14.2.2012: Drove into Stanley and except for their cost of living, we could take up residence! Stayed on the foreshore of Anthony Beach - beautiful! The puppies even enjoyed a run on the beach! The "Nut" looms over Stanley - an old volcanic plug discovered by the explorers Bass and Flinders in 1798, who officially named it Circular Head. It has steep sides and rises to 143 metres with a flat top.

There is the option to walk to the top of the Nut, but surprisingly we opted for the chair lift! We were fortunate with the weather and had superb views of Stanley. 
Spent some time fishing from the wharf at Sawyer Bay - the haul included an enormous 6 inch flathead!
