Peter, with respect to those black boulders at the beach, these are indeed volcanic. About 5 kilometres inland from Bargara there is a rise in the landscape known as The Hummock. This is the remnant of an old volcano that deposited lava out to the coast all the way from Elliott Heads in the south and up to Burnett Heads in the north. The boulders are the result of erosion of that lava over time. Peter F.

Hey Pete, your channel has popped up in my feed as i look for vision of the passage from Southport to Moreton Bay. Very interesting so thanks. I note that you are referring to Kingpinpin, I cannot find this name but it looks like you were at Jumpinpin, near Crusoe Is and Gold Bank, can you confirm? I have learnt a few bits of new info from your commentary. I also go the QLD Gov Notice to Mariners for the latest marine info.
