Rocher Perce. Gaspe Peninsula. Quebec.

Looks like a ship, almost!!

[Mannie]

I agree with Margo. What an impressive rock.

[Jane Anderson]

Looks like there is a tiny beach on it too!

@777margo @mbemis @janeandcharlie The translation is pierced rock. There is a hole through the rock way at the back. It used to have two openings but the arch fell through long long ago. It is 471 m long, 90 m large, 88m at the highest point.The hole has a diameter of 20 m. And 300 tons of rock falls off a year. Samuel de Champlain sailed through the archway at high sea. A very amazing sight.

@hellie Sounds like a facinating place to be,, specially at high tide!!

This reminds me of a ship floating in the ocean. A really really big one.

[Leslie]

That's one big rock

@deborah63 @lesip Weighs 5,000.000 tons. And it does appear from a distance as a ship under sail. Champlain christened it in 1603 where boats can pass through at high seas.
