Gordon River & Macquarie Harbour Cruise

These are some pictures of the cruise around Macquarie Harbour and the Gordon River from Strahan.


Hell's Gates at the entrance to Macquarie Harbour.


The tea coloured water of Macquarie Harbour is from the oils secreted from the pine trees in the rainforest.
