Sandfly Bay

Safety from sandflies

New Zealand has sandflies, blackfly-like insects that seem to love smelly hikers above all other snacks. 

The well-named pickup spot for Milford trampers is so infested that a special enclosed shelter is available for those waiting for the boat back to Milford Sound.

At the back of the boat ready to return, and ready for a shower

Beautiful Milford Sound is rarely sunny.
