Loch Ard Gorge Beach, Australia This was named in honor of the ship, which failed because of the strongest storm on this coast in 1878. Not far from the quiet beach is a number of the striking sights of natural origin, including the world-famous rock group 'Twelve Apostles'. The splendid beauty of the sandy beach and the surrounding rocks is due to the ordinary erosion process. The iron content in the local rocks is very large. The erosion continues all the time, so the landscapes surrounding the beach change literally every year.

On the beach you can get not only by water, but also by land. However, the path through the steep rocks is quite complicated. In the immediate vicinity of the beach is the small museum dedicated to the special features of the national nature reserve. Some tourists strive to visit the Loch Ard beach during the storm. Thanks to the unique location of the rocks, the roar of the sea is often more powerful, which is simply the grandiose acoustics. Next - Butterfly Valley
