Esperance Stonehenge
A full-scale replica of England's Stonehenge built from local pink granite, where you can experience the summer solstice sunrise inside the stone circle.
This is a 1:1 replica of Stonehenge in its complete form, made from 137 blocks of locally quarried pink granite. It is aligned to Esperance's latitude and longitude, so at the summer solstice sunrise and winter solstice sunset, sunlight passes through particular stone gateways. It is privately owned and operated, with an entry fee of around a dozen or so Australian dollars, guided tours and a small gift shop. About 15 km from town, it makes a convenient stop on the way to Cape Le Grand.
Opening hours
About 09:00–17:00 (check official website)
