Togo Chasm
Togo
A fantastical chasm reached by crossing a forest of razor-sharp coral pinnacles and descending a wooden ladder to a sandy floor with palm trees in the middle.
Togo Chasm lies on the southeast coast within the Togo Reserve. From the car park, you walk for about 20–30 minutes through pristine rainforest, then cross a field of blade-sharp black-grey coral limestone pinnacles before descending a long wooden ladder to the bottom of the chasm. The floor is white sand with several coconut palms in the centre, surrounded by stone walls, creating a strikingly unusual scene. Swimming at the bottom is not recommended; it is for viewing and photography only. Sturdy footwear is essential the whole way, as the rocks are sharp.
