Doubtful Sound by boat
THE DEPARTMENT of Conservation is running beat trips in the summer on Doubtful Sound. Based at the Deep Cove education centre, participants will be taken to remote parts of the sound as well as the open
coast. Specialists will discuss the features of Fiordland’s wildlife, forests and fiords. The main focus will be the fascinating but little-known 40metre band of underwater life on the fiord walls. There will be opportunities to see bottle-nosed dolphins, blue penguins, Fiordland crested penguins, seal colonies and the rare Fiordland skink. You will also see video footage of the new marine reserve in the sound. The trips are on 6 to 8 January and 6 to 8 February. Spaces are limited. For more information contact: "Mirror World’, Summer Visitor Programme, Fiordland National Park Visitor Centre, PO Box 29, Te Anau.
