Shipstern Bluff
The
Tasman Peninsula
 |
In recent years Shipstern Bluff
has become famous worldwide for its huge surf. We first visited the area on the
way to nearby Tunnel Bay. At the time we were unable to explore the Bluff. We
returned in April 2011 to be pleasantly surprised by the spectacular scenic
beauty of Shipstern Bluff.
The image on the right was taken
from the rock shelf below Shipstern Bluff with Cape Raoul in the distance. The
track to the base of the Bluff is about another 100 metres around to the left. A
steep but easy track to negotiate. The flat rock shelf continues back behind
where the picture was taken. It is beyond here where the wave formations become
very interesting - even on a very calm day like the day we visited. For this
reason we have included a
'waves' gallery along with a
track gallery (to
come) and a
gallery for the Bluff.
