We lingered to take many photos and then continued, following the coastline along the Kelp
Farmers Track. The beaches were strewn with huge quantities of flood logs that had washed
down the rivers and out to sea only to be washed back onto the beaches. It created huge piles
of driftwood entangled amongst massive clumps of bull kelp. The dead kelp left on the
beaches is still gathered up today. Dried and pulverised, it is useful as an organic fertiliser.
