Toward the end of your exploration of North Seymour Island, the barren, harsh landscape opens up to a long stretch of pristine sand. The shoreline is defined by piles of lava rock. Their smooth surfaces were polished while tumbling along the floor of the Pacific Ocean. In the distance are the Daphne Islands. Daphine Major is on the left and Daphne Minor is on the right. Both of these tuff cones were formed by volcanic activity. They are uninhabited and treeless yet do support colonies of birds.
