Our World Tuesday - Melbourne through the Ozone

This is all the remains of the paddle steamer Ozone. It was sunk off the coast of Indented Head – a small fishing port in Port Phillip Bay - to act as breakwater. You can see the CBD of Melbourne in the background, across the bay.


This beach is a wonderful area for just wading about when it’s hot.

You can find more places from around the world at Our World Tuesday.

You can find the most recent post to my other blog by clicking the Paying Ready Attention image on the RHS of the screen.
Enjoy the pictures.

  10. It looks so wild and alone it's hard to believe there's a big city not that far away!!

    Is 'bush basher' another phrase for your alliterative self-description?

  13. That is a novel way to build a breakwater, and an interesting place to sit and gaze at the water I guess.
