    The gravel road is literally the worst. We thought our car is falling apart!

    Wasn’t worth it to me. The road was terrible and $20 for parking is too much. You can see the cliffs from the main highway and check it off your list rather than getting up close.

    The cliffs are really nice and worthy, but the gravel road there was TERRIBLE, jumping in van for 20 minutes on that road and there is a fee for entrance... if they can take your money, so they maybe can do some repairs on the road 🥹

    This is a spectacular place to visit. It is on private property. There is an honesty box at the gate as well as banking details if you don't have cash. The cost is $10 per car and $20 per bus. Well worth the money. It's a gravel, but stick to the speed limit of 30km/hour and it's fine.

    Beautiful place! You can walk into the cliffs and climb up inside. Just know that the 5$ entry fee went up to 10$ as of March 2025

    Didn’t make it to the cliffs, the gravel road is exceptionally bumpy and we thought the campervan was goi g to just shake itself apart.
