Western Scenes

The West Coast’s Bruce Bay is “windswept, isolated and utterly beautiful” where travellers “have left their mark on the beachfront with small cairns of smooth rocks carefully balanced on boulders which line the shore,” writes the Bryon Shire News reporter Lee Mylne. “There are hundreds of them, and it feels like a place where wishes are made … It’s just one of the unexpected discoveries that make exploring this coastline such a delight. This stunningly scenic drive hugs the coast for almost 450km between Westport to the north and Haast to the south.”
