Canal Rocks Collection - Timber Bridge
No. 8 in the collection – The timber bridge which spans one of the natural canals with metal supports which were being installed to strengthen the bridge. Canal Rocks are close to Dunsborough, which is 3 hrs drive south from Perth in Western Australia From Dunsborough take the road towards Yallingup, then turn left when signpost for Smiths Beach and then take the turning marked for Canal Rocks Here you can spend many many hours just watching the sea break over the rocks
This is a dangerous piece of coastline and not to be taken lightly There is a wooden bridge crossing one of the canal channels, where the water surges and swirls in a variety of colours Gingerly take the eroded path down between the boulders to sea level, being careful not to get caught by the waves which unexpected sweep over the rocks and watch the fishermen casting into the fast running water, or sit and watch the waves break There are several rocky outcrops and channels which are worth exploring, but it is not for the faint hearted

Lovely shot….The bridge looks a bit unstable.

No it is very safe – although there were metal uprights being fitted at the time.

I hope that bridge is stronger than it looks, it makes a great subject over that turbulent water, very well captured Kala,
Regards, Rod.
kalaryder replied
Just found the comment Rod, sorry for the delay. Yes the bridge is very solid and there were workmen putting steel posts underneath to reinforce it too.
