Mr Nobody’s Gelato, Callala Bay

Here’s the plan: a Sunday afternoon on the white sandy shores of Wowly Creek, followed by a post-swim scoop of homemade ice cream at Mr Nobody’s Gelato. It’s a simple (well-signed) set-up at the back of a suburban home, a short three-minute drive (or 13-minute walk) away.

The ice cream is exceptional – creamy, full of flavour and made on-site, in dairy and non-dairy varieties such as pistachio, tiramisu and mango. But there’s a catch: it’s only available during school holidays, on Sundays, or in limited flavours at Frankie’s Coffee Van at Culburra Beach.
