Twelve Apostles Marine National Park
Twelve Apostles Marine National Park, National park in Australia
The Twelve Apostles Marine National Park is known for its stunning limestone stacks that rise majestically from the Southern Ocean.
The formation of these stacks has been a slow process estimated to have taken about 20 million years due to erosion.
The name 'Twelve Apostles' reflects the biblical reference, though only eight stacks remain visible.
Visitors can best view the Twelve Apostles just off the shore of the Great Ocean Road.
This park features underwater arches and canyons which provide habitats for marine life.
