Twelve Apostles National park is located in the Southern part of Australia. The park rises out of the Southern ocean just alongside the Great Ocean road. Pillars that were once connected to the mainland cliffs have been transformed by the wind. All that remains now are the majestic tall limestone columns. Some areas are high as 45 meters. #twelve #apostles #nationalpark #australia #pillars

Instead of terminating the journey at Twelve Apostles National Park, do it at Princetown. This should be around 7 kilometers apart. From Princetown, you can walk along the boardwalk, steps, rubber tiles and crushed gravel to the park. The walk will offer stunning views of the coastal shores. Kangaroos and unique bird species will appear occasionally during the walk. Savor such moments by making the walk as slow as possible. #walk #princetown #twelve #apostles #australia #park

What is a park without the animals and plants? The Twelve Apostles’ unique habitat has encouraged biodiversity. Seabirds, sea spiders, lobsters, and kelp forests are just a tip of the biodiversity available. Sometimes whales visit the area. #flora #fauna #animals #nationalpark #twelve #apostles

The beauty of the Twelve Apostles National Park resulted from the waves hitting the coastline. The waves shaped the coastline into what it is today. Recreate this experience by watching the waves at high tides. The splashing of water and the knocking of the coastal line by the waves is therapeutic. #wave #watching #twelve #apostles #australia
