O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Ogroman glacijalni lutalac od 838 tona vidljivo leži na obali, donesen ovamo ledom tijekom posljednjeg ledenog doba prije otprilike 10.000 godina. Mještani su ga obojili u bijelo 1870-ih kako bi bio vidljiv s brodova, dajući tako ime i stijeni i gradu.
Istaknuto: Svake ljetne dugodnevice, nekoliko odvažnih mještana penje se na vrh u zoru za mirnu tradiciju zajednice koja traje desetljećima. Podnožje stijene skriva malu klupu uklesanu u mahovinu gdje ranoranitelji mogu sjediti i promatrati plimu kako raste oko ovog drevnog putnika.
Insajderski savjeti
- Arrive at least an hour before sunset for fewer crowds and a glowing photo session.
- Wear waterproof shoes if you want to walk across the exposed tidal flats at low tide.
- Check the tide tables online first: high tide can leave you stranded on the wrong side of the rock.
- Bring a picnic blanket and grab a spot on the grassy promenade across the street for a longer, relaxed view.
