Remarkable Rocks

Remarkable Rocks truly live up to their name! The rock formations are stunning and like nothing I’ve seen before — the shapes, textures, and colours are incredible, especially against the backdrop of the ocean and sky. The viewing area is well maintained with good paths and a safe boardwalk, making it easy to get close and explore the different angles. It’s amazing how nature has sculpted these giant granite boulders over millions of years — it’s like a natural art gallery! We went at sunset and the light made the rocks glow beautifully — highly recommend timing your visit for golden hour if you can. There’s good signage with interesting facts about the geology and history of the site, and plenty of space to wander around and take photos. Just be careful on windy days as it can get pretty blustery near the cliffs! An absolute must-see on Kangaroo Island — Remarkable Rocks are unforgettable and definitely worth the visit.

​They call them 'Remarkable Rocks,' but the most remarkable thing about them is the wind's sheer, unadulterated aggression. From the moment I stepped out of the car, I was locked in a personal battle against an invisible force that seemed determined to launch me into the Great Southern Ocean. I wasn't so much walking as I was doing a very slow, sideways moonwalk, leaning into the gale at a 45-degree angle just to stay upright. The air wasn't a gentle breeze; it was a physical entity, howling a prehistoric shriek and attempting to steal my hat, glasses, and dignity simultaneously. ​The rocks themselves are impressive, I suppose, if you can actually stop long enough to appreciate them. My photos look less like a scenic landscape and more like an action shot of a person trying to survive a wind tunnel. My hair was a single, horizontal entity. It's a breathtaking spot, literally, because the wind steals your breath right out of your lungs. 5 stars. Would get blown away again

Both Remarkable and Admirals Arch are awesome vantage points to see whales through winter [May–October] – southern rights, sperm and blue whales. Formed 500 million years ago, the Remarkable Rocks were created when molten rock bubbled through the earth's crust and solidified into granite.

An absolutely breathtaking destination with the oceanic backdrop to these stunning organic forms ( wind sculptures if you like as they’re formed via erosion from the wind and hand of God). They are truly remarkable.

Absolutely breathtaking! The Remarkable Rocks truly live up to their name — I was blown away by both the incredible rock formations and the panoramic coastal views. Perched dramatically on the edge of the cliffs in Flinders Chase National Park, the rocks are a striking mix of shapes, textures, and colours, created over millions of years by wind, sea spray, and rain. Wandering among these natural sculptures felt almost surreal — like walking through an open-air art gallery crafted by nature itself. The bright orange lichen against the grey stone added an extra layer of beauty, especially under the changing light from the coastal skies. It’s an easy walk from the carpark, and well worth the short trip for anyone visiting Kangaroo Island. A must-see for photographers, nature lovers, and anyone who appreciates the raw power and artistry of the natural world.

Getting closer to the rocks on a rainy day can be slippery, but the view is worth it. You've got to play with your imagination with the shape of the rock. It is truly magnificent to have such masterpieces on Kangaroo Island.

The end of the world. Nothing under this Remarkable Rock. It's literally the end of the world. There is only Antarctica beyond this point. You move a bit further to your left facing the sea you would be looking down on New Zealand but from the rock It's the end. You can actually say you were standing at the edge of the world.

Awesome rock formations. Great for photography. Weather sucked for us and had to make a hasty retreat when the rain hit - so try to go on a clear day. Short walk (on boardwalk) to rocks - but need to be able to walk up steep surface to truly appreciate them.

The Rocks were truly remarkable! These natural wonders or highlights of the west end of Kangaroo Island, Flinders Chase National Park. The colors of the rocks and interesting formations against the bright blue sky and turquoise waters was incredible. The photographs with my iPhone don't do it justice.

Absolutely a must! Beautiful and it's a must! Drive around and walk on rocks and smell that ocean
