Yamba is at the mouth of the Clarence River in NSW and has a beautiful surf beach, a large river and an expansive system of sandy tributaries which are a haven for birds and other wildlife. The river is home to a fleet of small trawlers which fish the river and provide plenty of local prawns (great photo opportunities too!). All the townships along the river to Grafton have small pubs which overlook the river and provide interesting colour. We plan to try a number of these during our visit. Iluka is across the river and is accessible by a short ferry ride. We are currently speaking to local camera groups and hope to have a meet-up during our stay. Please book your own accommodation (soon!) and let Ann know if you are coming – email Ann on abryan@bigpond.net.au, ph. 0411 486 939 See you there!
