Locals call the place D Bay. I have lived here 20 years and lately there are people trying to make the place a bit upmarket. These people decided Deception Bay was not the best name for such a beautiful place, and suggested its name be changed to Endeavour Bay. As if! We don't want to live in E Bay!!!

Aha! the old D Bay. I went to high school with people from D.Bay, but 20 years is not long enough ago to have been to school with me!
