Message from Samuel Markham

Truly an area like no other, the unusual basalt columns of Bombo Quarry make it feel as though you're walking on the moon. These rock formations are a product of the region's rich mining history and blue metal quarrying in the 1880s and 1900s, along with centuries of exposure to the powerful ocean forces. Its also a hotspot for landscape photographers during sunrise.
