We tramped to Pandora Bay and thought it was just darling so we stopped there for the night.
Then night fell, and the mosquitoes arrived. It was horrific. We were swarmed getting out to go to the loo in the middle of the night and then took maybe 200 mosquitoes back into our tiny tramping tent with us. Which we then had to kill one by one as we don't tramp with fly spray. We heard the mosquitoes buzzing outside the tent, there were so many they were in concert.
And then the rats got our food. Delightful place to spend the day but not the night. It's named Pandora for a reason.
