Whats here?

An iconic coastal viewpoint in Torndirrup National Park near Albany — a dramatic granite channel where the Southern Ocean crashes against sheer cliffs, complete with a raised viewing platform that sits about 40 m above the waves.

What to expect

• Epic views of the rugged Southern Ocean and coastal cliffs

• Accessible viewing platform and paved walking paths from the car park

• Short walk (easy, flat surface), great for photos

• National Park entry fee ($17) applies (per vehicle, or covered by a WA Park Pass)

• Well-maintained lookouts with interpretive signage

Is it worth it?

Yes — definitely worth a stop if you’re near Albany or already in Torndirrup National Park.

This pairs perfectly with the Bald Head Walk Trail and Misery Beach on the same park pass, so you can combine a great coastal hike, scenic beach and dramatic ocean lookout all in one day without paying twice.

A full day doing Bald Head → The Gap → Misery Beach makes for one of the best natural itineraries around Albany — action, views and beauty all in one shot.
