A gem of a coast
Bermagui, a small town on Australia's Sapphire Coast, is known for its rugged beauty and dramatic seascapes. This long-exposure image captures the rocky shoreline at dawn, where waves crash against ancient stone formations under a pastel sky. The coastline here was shaped by volcanic activity and erosion, creating churning chasms and jagged outcrops that are a magnet for photographers and nature lovers. An ocean-fed rock pool carved into the cliffs, known as the Blue Pool, is a symbol of Bermagui and an extra-scenic swimming experience.
