Anyone For Water Football?
The southern end of Lake Ainsworth, a freshwater lake near Lennox Head. Very popular with swimmers and sailors. The lake is coloured like brownish tea, caused by diffusion from local tea trees. The tea tree element is said to be very good for the skin and hair.




Yipee!
Two youngsters pop out of the fast yellow slide at the
Ballina Swimming Pool. There is a slower green slide for
the less adventurous!




Lennox - the Headland
The rugged profile of Lennox Head. The surf break at the bottom is popular with board surfers. Hang gliders launch themselves from the headland and sweep around it in graceful arcs. A walking track leads to the top with spectacular views.
