The Saltee Life - Nelson Bay at SALTEE Beach House
SURF. SIP. SHOP. STAY. PLAY. CHILL & GET SALTEE
Morning salt swim. Bakery run and coffee in hand. Slow shop at the makers. Bike down to Shoal Bay for a SUP session. Dune play until the light softens. Fresh oysters at Holberts overlooking the bay. Fish and chips on the marina. Fisherman’s Wharf wander as the pelicans arrive. Sleep with the windows cracked to the breeze. Saltee swims. Long bike rides. Easy days and sandy feet…
That’s the cool Saltee Life.
