Admirals Arch is reached from the boardwalk at Cape du Couedic. There are a number of viewing platforms along the way to stop and look at the 'stinky' New Zealand fur seals resting, sleeping and playing on the rocky base of the arch.
The Admiral's Arch is a remnant of the ancient cave that was broken by ocean waves and transformed into a natural bridge. Stalactites are still hanging off the top of the arch as the evidence of its unusual history. The arch presents a geological significance and designated as a geological monument.
The Cape du Couedic Lighthouse is a prominent landmark constructed from 2,000 pieces of local stone, which was completed in 1909.
Thanks for visiting,
