Elephant Rock

If you travel to the park at Coquille point, you will have a good view of Elephant Rock.  This rock is distinguished by two sea caves formed around what appears to be the elephant’s trunk.

The areas of stone above the caves appear to be the ears.  During heavy seas (and high tide), water rushes through the caves, and can resemble tusks.

One of the best view points is a short way down the steps leading to the beach.
