在海岸线周围惊呼(Horsing around the coastline)

你可以把马牵到水边,但你不能强迫它喝水——当然,除非你说的是马头岩,它栖息在澳大利亚新南威尔士州Bermagui附近的蓝宝石海岸。这个古老的构造,如图所示,似乎大自然本身塑造了一个神话般的生物,永远准备从海里喝水。据估计,这块岩石有5亿年的历史,它与弯曲脖子的马惊人地相似,这是风和波浪侵蚀的结果。作为该地区最古老、最具标志性的地标之一,它全年都吸引着徒步旅行者、摄影师和自然爱好者。最好的景色来自骆驼岩和穆伦纳角之间的高架轨道,而更大胆的人可以从骆驼岩冲浪海滩爬来爬去,尽管只有在退潮时才能安全。

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink—unless, of course, you're talking about Horse Head Rock, perched off the Sapphire Coast near Bermagui in New South Wales, Australia. This ancient formation, pictured here, seems as if nature itself has sculpted a mythical creature forever poised to drink from the sea. Estimated to be 500 million years old, the rock's uncanny resemblance to a horse bending its neck is the result of wind and wave erosion. As one of the region's oldest and most iconic landmarks, it attracts hikers, photographers and nature lovers year-round. The best views are from the elevated track between Camel Rock and Murunna Point, while the more daring can scramble around from Camel Rock Surf Beach, though only safely at low tide.
