What people say

"One of the most famous spots on the West Coast, the pancake rocks and blowholes are well worth a stop when driving up the coast. The pancake rocks started forming about 30 million years ago and are multiple layers of limestone stacking up. A boardwalk takes you to the rugged coastline, providing views on the impressive pancake rocks as well as the blowholes, where the water shoots skywards making for a great spectacle."
Bailey Selland
"A 1 km loop walk through unique coastline. The blowhole and various pots and steam holes will make you wonder at the ocean!"
"Free parking and a cafe + shop near the track start"
