Really beautiful place for pictures, worth the visit. Do take note that you will need to climb up and down a narrow flight of stairs to get to the beach. It’s quite tiring if you’re unfit. Not recommended for people who can’t walk much or elderly. There is parking available. You should spend less than an hour here.

Most people - practically everyone in fact - who come to this part of the world will be here to see the 12 Apostles. One option for a slightly different view of at least one stack and for a reasonably accessible option of seeing what it's like to be at the base of some of the coastal cliffs is to stop at Gibsons Steps. You can just park and catch the view from the top or you can take the few flights of stairs down to beach level and get some interesting photographs and memories from the beach level including the chance to get a closer look at one of the offshore stacks that are such a feature of the coastline in this area. Recommended.

The Gibson Steps were located roughly 30-60 minutes walking distance from the main 12 Apostles parking lot (per posted signs) but we drove over (less than five minutes) and parked in its own car lot. The lot here was smaller so could fill up quicker during a higher travel season than May. The stairs were sandy and wet but we had no problems descending or climbing back up. The initial views when hitting the beach gave the impression of just one rock but as we walked along the beach towards it we could see a distinct 2nd one standing on its own. They were known as Gog and Magog. For us the best views were about 15 minutes walk from the staircase. This was a great vantage point especially as the sun was breaking free of the cloud covering. If you do not have enough time to visit then it looks like a new viewing platform will be open soon at the 12 Apostles. It was gated off during our visit.
