Timeline
16:30
Walk the long trail down the gorge to water level. The southern descent leads you directly into the basin where ships once turned around.
16:50
Stand on the curving boardwalk. The water is right there, and the light is turning warm as the sun heads toward the WSW.
17:00
Watch the sunset. The sky reflects off the basin as the light fades.
Local tip
