Elephant Rocks

Tourist attractions

Description

At Elephant Rocks, huge granite boulders resemble a herd of elephants lumbering out to sea.

A short walk trail from the carpark takes you to a lookout over Elephant Rocks. From here, you can just imagine that these massive boulders are elephants sunning themselves before heading off for a swim. The trail then descends between the rocks to a sheltered cove. This is a lovely place for a swim but be aware that strong currents sometimes run through this cove.

Providing a stark contrast to the granite that dominates this section of coast, a strip of black dolerite lines the eastern edge of the bay.

You can walk from Elephant Rocks around the rocky headland to Greens Pool.

William Bay National Park is very popular in peak periods such as school and public holidays and there are limited parking spaces. Visiting the park outside of these times may provide you with a more enjoyable experience. Camping is not permitted in William Bay National Park.
