Refuge Cove is well named. Located on Wilsons Promontory, it provides a wonderful haven for yachts before or after they weather the perils of the Tasman Sea. Like many other visitors, we too arrived here by yacht. It was many years ago in mid January 1991 and it proved to be a surreal experience. While enjoying the scenery of this primitive wilderness, the first news broke of Americas massive attack against Iraq in the first Gulf War. At the time, no-one really knew what invading Iraq would mean, and the whole world seemed in an uproar. But here, far away in Refuge Cove, there was a timeless, peace-filled beauty. It gave us hope that sanity would again prevail.
