Bay of Fires Tasmania 🩵💚 🦭
The Gardens and Binnalong - WoW
Rock and Rockpool Sealife Paradise
The coastline opens to a breathtaking sweep of white sands and crystal-clear water, shifting from turquoise shallows to deep cobalt blue. Scattered along the shore are giant granite boulders, rounded…. smoothed by centuries of wind and tide.
Each one smudged with burnt-orange and rust-red tone, created by a lichen that thrives in the salt spray. This natural pigment, part algae, part fungi, paints the rocks in fiery hues that seem to ignite under the sun.
Interestingly, the name wasn’t originally about the rocks, it came from a shipsighting, who recorded traditional land keepers campfires along the shore. Like ‘A Bay of Fires’
The sealife - mutton birds - seals, playing Dolphines - whales off the shore.
It’s here, between the green of the land and the blue of the sea, that Tasmania reveals her masterpiece, a living contrast of elements, light, and time.
I hope the pictures inspire you to go. They are only such a small capture of a gorgeous journey.
