What's at 'Bor-pull'? No such place, the locals will tell you. Had you pronounced Bauple as 'bopple', then there would be a better response.

Although in reality, there is not a real lot to be seen or to do. Apart from an excellent rock collection, located right alongside the highway and that attracts a few people each day, so too does the Thai-style group of buildings which can't be missed. The latter is called Windsong and it features a series of 'arty' type retail outlets including a tea and coffee shop.

There should be a mention, though, for the local aquaculture enterprise. This small community was the site for the country's first inland prawn farm. Now there no less than nine council-approved red claw farms.
