St Michaels Caves are a system of caverns in the Rock of Gibraltar. During recent alterations to public access, the entrance had to be enlarged. This left some ugly strengthening concrete on view. Koda Creative beautified this structural concrete by covering it in our simulated rock.
We matched the outside rock to the inside rock seamlessly and aged and coloured it so that it was indistinguishable from the existing limestone.
We are always looking for strange or amazingly beautiful rock formations on our travels and we were not disappointed with this find. Following a tip off from a friend, we drove our rental car north from Margaret River, Western Australia and turned up at Canal Rocks near Yallingup. Here we found a very interesting granite formation with some out of the ordinary features. Canal Rocks has very unusual fault and strata lines and intense colours giving it an almost human made appearance in places. Also some areas of very attractive wind erosion (scroll down to detailed pictures) makes this lump of rock a must see on the Western Australia geological trail.
Canal Rocks is in the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park, about three hours drive south from Perth. Aboriginal name for Canal Rocks is Winjee Sam.
