Fortescue Bay

As seen by

Rod Ewins

Fortescue Bay is a popular hiking, camping and boating spot between Eaglehawk Neck and Port Arthur. It is managed by National Parks and Wildlife. These few photographs were taken in July 2004, not many weeks after bushfires had raged through the area. Hence the first three pictures taken on the road in to the Bay.
