We continue our adventure through Portland, this time getting into the sport of the town. Whether you’re into footy, basketball, surfing… or even walking, Portland does it better than most.
The surf beaches are so good, Damian gets put in a car boot for a secret tour from a local surfer, who cannot be named, for fear of retribution. While Kirsten goes to Cape Bridgewater to experience the Great South West Walk.
We also hear the incredible story of how nearby Budj Bim, the world’s oldest aquaculture system, came to be listed on the World Heritage List in 2019… a process which took nearly two decades.
Damian and Kirsten finally make it up the corkscrew and witness the mysterious ‘truck rocket launchers’.
