Apostles Cave by

Looking out from a cave on an eroding peninsular which will eventually become another free standing stack (or apostle). One step further back and it’s a very high plunge into the ocean. This section is now closed to the public due to erosion and obvious safety reasons. Taken c 1980.

‘The Twelve Apostles’, Great Ocean Road coastline, Port Campbell National Park, Victoria, Australia.
