This photo does this place no justice... I went to a lookout to watch the final stages of the sunset in Port Campbell... saw a sign that said, essentially "don't go here" so I did and found another path leading to a set of stairs with a childproof gate and a whole bunch of warning signs "Dangerous - do not enter" blah blah.... so I climbed through them (ripping my pants in the process - yay) and walked down this narrow path (very much reminded me of the game "Riven") with very high walls down to one of the most amazing lookouts I have found... unbelievable 270 degree views of the ocean and totally unobstucted sunset... beauty.
