Only three families lived in Bathurst Harbour, now part of Southwest National Park. And only one person lived there for almost 50 years. I’ve read about Deny King, so it was thrilling to see where he and his family lived while exploring with @tasmanian_boat_charters. This is Deny’s pontoon up Moth Creek. #boatinghistory #discovertasmaniaThis may be my favourite pic of Bathurst Harbour, a harbour within a harbour at Port Davey in Southwest National Park, Tasmania. These are the Celery Top Islands highlighted by morning warmth against the backdrop of Mount Rugby (I think). Views like this are only possible from the water. Thanks to boutique expedition cruise @tasmanian_boat_charters expert guide @petermarmion and photographer @andrewbrucewilson for taking us out in the tinny to get these #mistymorning shots. #tasmaniaKnow what this plant is? I certainly didn’t recognise it. It’s a baby Huon Pine grabbing a foothold amongst the quartzite cliffs of remote Davey Gorge in @tasmania Southwest National Park. You could spend several days walking in here, or fly in as I did with @paraviontas as part of a boutique cruise with @tasmanian_boat_charters and get escorted to hidden spots like this with expert guides. Tasmania #nzhtravelIt’s taken me a while to get to Port Davey in #tasmainia but it’s been worth the wait! Cocooned inside Southwest National Park at the bottom of Tassie this huge waterway surrounded by wilderness would take weeks to explore, but I saw an amazing amount in four days aboard @tasmanian_boat_charters vessel Odalisque. With weather changing hourly, we captured some moody shots, thanks to photographer @andrewbrucewilson who helped us capture the light. #portdavey #expeditioncruise @tasmaniaparks @nzhtravel- My Tweets
