I don’t want to go …

(That’s a Doctor Who reference for the uninitiated. You really need to get initiated – it’s almost as awesome as Kingscliff.)

We are leaving paradise this morning. And I am sad. We will be back for longer next time. Ten days at least.

It is GORGEOUS here, and peaceful (well, some sad would-be hoons tried – and failed – to do burn-outs one night, but generally …) with yummy restaurants and cocktails and two-bedroom ocean-view apartment for sale for $419,000.

And a Witchery. Let’s not forget the Witchery.

We’ve stayed in a lovely two-bedroom at Mantra Salt (click here for more details) and enjoyed many a lovely meal on the breezy balcony. See below.

We haven’t even had time to explore Kingscliff proper, but the beach looks awesome and there’s a fun looking Mexican restaurant.

Less than 10 minutes away are the mixed pleasures of South Tweed’s ugly retail megaplexes and a cinema.

Less than 20 minutes away is Gold Coast Airport.

I think I could be very happy here. I’ve suggested Husband switch his working hours and we become a FIFO family. He could head to the airport after work on Saturday nights, then fly back to Sydney again every Wednesday morning.

Totally doable.

OK, enough with the fantasising – I’m off on my final beach walk.
