    Island Arch

    The Island Arch was a 25-meter high naturally formed rock archway, due to erosion by wind and weather the arch collapsed in June 2009. What remains of the Island Arch are two rock pillars, which have since been officially named Tom and Eva, after the two survivors of the Loch Ard shipwreck. Island Arch Lookout (Tom and Eva Lookout) is just one of many beautiful spots around the Lock Ard Gorge area and one that should not be missed.

    The Razorback

    This rock formation is called The Razorback due to the sharp edges and bumps along its back. These were caused by wind-blown spray which hardens small areas of rock. The softer rock around these erodes leaving an uneven surface.

    Not sure why this is not listed on the top things to see on the Great Ocean Road. Just a short 5 mins walk from the car park and you get two sets of amazing views. The Razorback is quite impressive, I highly recommend it.
