Prior to Sept 2, 2005, there was a very large arch here spanning over 100 feet and standing 23 feet above sea level. Unfortunately, this arch collapsed sometime during the night but there still is a smaller bridge nearby.
"Baby Bridge" is about 25 feet long and about 3 feet above sea level. It has a crack it, so nobody is allowed to walk on it but it is still a very popular tourist attraction. There is no fee to visit and there is a gift store and refreshment store nearby.

Type of Arch: Coastline
