London Arch
London Arch (formerly London Bridge)
A double-arched sea stack once called London Bridge. In 1990 one arch on the land side collapsed and two tourists were stranded on the island before a helicopter rescue. It now stands as a freestanding sea arch.
London Arch lies about 6 km west of Port Campbell. The double arch, which was once connected to the mainland, lost a section in January 1990, so only a single arch now stands in the sea. The viewing platform has two levels, and you can photograph the arch and the waves from different angles. At dusk you may occasionally see little penguins coming ashore on the beach below. Entry is free. There is a car park, and a viewing takes about 20 minutes.
