Waddington Cove to Kwasti Bay

We left Waddington Cove this morning and headed to Kwasti Bay (still in the Broughton Islands). This is an area of shear rock cliffs and many signs of landslides. The ground covering the rock is so thin that heavy rains and winds cause major earth slides. In many areas, from hundreds of feet up the mountainsides, the earth and tree cover has let loose and slid clear down to the water leaving nothing but solid rock where evergreen forest had once been. I guess in the spring the waterfalls are spectacular. Most are dry now.

We stopped on the way, threw out the prawn traps and did a little fishing for Rock Cod. Chris caught a small cod and we pulled up a few prawns.

Max loves it when we pull up the fishing net or traps. He thinks it is just

so interesting when we bring things out of the water.

He really liked the Prawns.
