## About Goddess Bay

Goddess Bay lies on the west side of Lake Lugu, a quiet little harbour named after Gemu Goddess Mountain across the water. When the sun sets behind the western hills and the evening glow turns red, the whole lake takes on a warm hue, making it the perfect moment to photograph the lake and the sacred mountain together.
