The breakwater in Hermitage

Hermitage lies in a bowl between the mountains. So does just about every other town on the Southwest Coast!

The ferry boat at Hermitage. There are 5 or so ferries serving the southwest coast. Even so getting beyond the next town can be a several day trip for some villages

Waterfalls abound! This cliff is about 1000ft high.

Impressive rock falls in Lampiodes Channel

Beautiful talus slopes

Water falls at Morgan Bay. Maybe you can see the deep hole they spill into?

The fjords are too deep to anchor except at the head where rivers bring down silt.

Killicks (stone anchors) are still used for fishing but are beginning to be replaced by steel grapnels. Lifting one of these over the side of a boat is not easy!
