Close to the port, you can find Campbell Section which shows the striking and wonderful natural rock sculptures. Among its many rock formations, the most popular is the Loch Ard Gorge, The Grotto, which replicates an altar and finally, the world famous Twelve Apostles that resembles the disciples of Jesus standing and some are kneeling. The now know as London Arch was formerly called London Bridge but the locals called it "arch" instead when the land section or the "bridge" collapsed in its own natural order. Other formations also include the Blow Hole and the Elephant Rock which got its name form the huge build of the mammal. These rock formations are naturally formed through time as the waves sculptured the rocks during high tides and low tides.
