Impressive scenery, Lake Manapouri and the rising sun just catching the mountain tops.
Followed by a coach trip across Wilmot Pass, with waterfalls, land slips and rain forest to Deep Cove.
Scenes from Malaspina Reach and Doubtful Sound.
Glimpse of the Tasman Sea as we approach the Shelter Islands.
Much less touristy than Milford and much longer, the journey up the Sound goes as far as the Shelter Islands, how far depends on the state of the Tasman Sea and how rough it is. Not too bad on the day we went and showers only, which was good weather for this part of the world.
