Twelve Apostles Park

The Twelve Apostles Park is a protected marine national park on Victoria, Australia’s south-west coast. The 7,500-hectare (19,000-acre) marine park is named after a picturesque area near Port Campbell. The wreck of the clipper Loch Ard, which was wrecked on Mutton Bird Island in 1878, is located among the Twelve Apostles rock stacks. The marine park is bordered by the national parks of Port Campbell and Great Otway.
