Stromatolites of Shark Bay的点评
点评:I wish I had checked TripAdvisor reviews before travelling, as the most recent ones are largely accurate.
The Hamelin Pool Stromatolites are a nationally significant natural feature, but unfortunately the boardwalk has still not been properly repaired following cyclone damage several years ago. For such an important site, it is disappointing that access remains restricted. While we understand there have been attempts to resolve the issue, these appear to have been complicated by local arrangements with the café.
It is also possible that some of the stromatolite formations themselves have been affected by storm damage, which is particularly unfortunate given their scientific and historical importance.
One suggestion made by others that we fully agree with is the need for clear signage on the main road indicating that the boardwalk is closed. This would save visitors a significant amount of unnecessary travel.
If you do decide to visit, it is worth stopping at the café first to pick up face nets, as the flies are extremely persistent and can make the experience uncomfortable.
On a positive note, I was able to get some drone footage from the far edge of the boardwalk area, which did salvage something from the visit.
翻译:我真希望出发前能看看 TripAdvisor 上的评论,因为最近的评论大多都很准确。
哈默林池叠层石是具有国家级意义的自然景观,但可惜的是,几年前飓风造成的破坏导致木栈道至今仍未得到妥善修复。对于这样一个重要的景点来说,仍然限制通行实在令人失望。虽然我们了解到有人尝试解决这个问题,但似乎由于当地咖啡馆的安排而使情况变得更加复杂。
一些叠层石本身也可能受到了风暴的破坏,考虑到它们的科学和历史价值,这尤其令人遗憾。
我们完全赞同其他人提出的一个建议:需要在主干道上设置清晰的指示牌,标明木栈道已关闭。这将为游客节省大量不必要的行程。
如果您决定前往,建议您先去咖啡馆买个防蚊面罩,因为那里的苍蝇非常顽固,会让人感到不舒服。
值得庆幸的是,我从木板路区域的远端拍摄到了一些无人机画面,这多少挽回了这次旅行的些许遗憾。
