Exploring Magnetic Island | #29 | Motorcycle Travel Australia

It was a beautiful (hot!) Sunday on Magnetic Island in Tropical North Queensland. Perfect weather for some beach hopping and moto touring around to see the sights.

To keep it simple we left Arnie at home and doubled on Franco for the ride, first stopping at Horseshoe Bay on the north end of Magnetic Island. The Sunday markets were on so we had a browse around even though we didn't have space on the bikes to buy anything new. Nothing wrong with some window shopping lol.

After a play on the beach and a relaxing beer we hopped back on Franco for a short ride to the east of the island for a swim in one of the many bays. Ending up in Arthur Bay we found a beautiful secluded beach that we had almost to ourselves. So we relaxed some more and went for a dip to cool off.

Later in the afternoon we rode out to the meet some little guys Magnetic Island is famous for, the rock wallabies! They're like mini kangaroos and super cute. There's a colony of them that live on the northern point of Geoffrey Bay on the south east of the island. We were told by locals they like carrots so we took an offering and went to say hello to the adorable little buggers!

The next morning we treated ourselves to a nice brekky out. I'd had a bit of a tumble during the night and given myself a shiner so Tina wanted to make me feel better, and who was I to argue? :)

Thanks for watching!

Originally from Sydney, Australia, we met in 2005 and have been married since 2012. We've both always loved to travel, we started a small web development business together almost 10 years ago so we could travel around the world while working remotely. We love adventure travel and learning through doing, we went on a one year overland cycle touring and camping trip back in 2013 through Asia and Europe with zero experience and it turned out to be one of the most exciting and memorable times of our lives. Since then we've always wanted to do something that big and adventurous again but haven't gotten around to it until now. We got the idea for a motorcycle trip around Australia when the pandemic hit and the borders all closed, neither of us had seen much of "our own backyard" yet so we thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do another overland trip. Neither of us had any motorcycle touring experience but we weren't going to let a small detail like that hold us back! So Tina got her motorcycle learner license 😲 then we bought Arnie and Franco (our Royal Enfield Himalayans) and hit the road! 🏍️🏍️ We started this travel vlog for a bit of fun and to have something to look back on and relive the adventure of our glory days when we're old and grey, and to share our experiences with friends and family.
