Description: Public park with boardwalk into mouth of a cave in Nara Inlet on Hook Islans in the Whitsunday National Forest, Queensland, Australia. The painting is by the Ngaro aboriginal people and is thousands of years old. The painting's symbolism or figurative subject is unknown but resembles a Pandanas fruit that the Ngaro people are known to have used for food. It also resembles the inside of a sea turtle shell, which was also a common staple of the Ngaro people.
