47/365 Razorback

View to Razorback at Black Head, a dramatic sea stack and a large tilted rock platform with pools and a cave. Seen from the Red Head lookout, New South Wales.

 

A small headland separates Diamond Beach from Shelly Beach. Red Head forms the southern boundary. It is composed of 250 million year old red shales interbedded with thin layers of volcanic ash together with fossil land plant remains (beachsafe.org.au). Further south is Black Head Beach, named after the Irish birthplace (Black Head, Antrim) of the first settler William Hoy, who moved to Black Head, New South Wales, around 1881.
