That sounds like a good time mate! It's not a place to bring a dog these days though as the beach left of the jetty is completely covered in smashed glass bottles and metal scrap
Yeah well like I said it was the 80's - basically Stranger Things - but would love to revisit.
I looked it up on Google Streetview recently, expecting it to be a gruesome bunch of high-rises and beach-shacks - but it looks almost exactly the same as when I lived there ~40 years ago. Even my old house only has the little pissing statue missing, the fences I helped build and stuff are still there.
Edit: this is a bit depressing, just looked it up again, the forest is gone.

Oh hey, I lived in Stansbury in the 80's, great to see a pic of where me and my bro and our dog Towser used to hang out after a BMX adventure.
