The Longest Walk

The Longest Walk

This walker will have walked more than three and a half kilometers by the time he returns from his stroll to the end and back.

At nearly two kilometers, Busselton Jetty is the longest wooden jetty in the world and a drawcard to this region three hours south of Perth.

I dived here more than twenty years ago but unlike our local jetty dives, the only sensible way to get to the end of the jetty is by boat.

I don’t really remember much about what we found here beneath the waves so long ago. I think I remember seahorses. I certainly remember many of fish species here were the same as those back home.

I am certain no one was diving here today with turbid cappuccino water crashing around the pylons and onto the beach.

Perhaps this guy is a diver making the longest walk to the end and back instead.
