Big Kinka Whale – Kinka Beach


You need to take an hour detour from the Bruce Hwy to see this beast but I think he’s definitely worth it. Well, worth it to me, as the Kinka Whale is a rather rare Big Thing which sits outside the now abandoned Marineland (I also have a soft spot for abandoned places) Unfortunately someone had spray painted a penis just below the poor whale’s eye, really, people, respect the Big Things! We peered inside the whale’s mouth, aka a clever use of windows/ doors and saw lots of jars of specimens; it was all rather odd and cool and made me fall in love with the Kinka even more!
