The park covers almost four thousand hectares and is home to the famous 'Gap' and 'Natural Bridge' rock formations (below) which have formed over thousands of years. These granite outcroppings have been slowly worn away by the Great Southern Ocean.
Known for it's wildflowers, Torndirrup's flowers are open between October and January. Whale watching is popular between May and October.
