Coast of North West Tasmania.
In the afternoon following our Arthur River cruise, we made for the wild north-west coast of Tasmania.

These images are in the area of Buff Hill Point.

Still in the Bluff hill Point area, I think a little further north.

Bluff Hill Point Lighthouse.
It was built in 1982 and never manned. It replaced the West Point Lighthouse, about 10km to the north, which was built in 1916 and demolished for this one (probably to avoid mariners becoming confused as to which lighthouse they were looking at).

Lighthouse Beach.
We went for an early dinner at the Marrawah Pub and then came here. Lighthouse Beach has stayed here but the lighthouse has moved.

A little further north along the coast, these are mainly terns and a stray silver gull.
