The boat slips out past the Murchison River mouth and the coastline opens like a page of ochre cliffs and carved bays. Salt spray cools the skin as Reefwalker, a 50-foot charter, threads past Jacques Point, Red Bluff and the sculpted Mushroom Rock; the sun slides toward the horizon and the rocks take on an almost molten glow.
