Mind the Gap
The impressive granite cliffs seem like an indestructible fortress. Yet one narrow section lost the battle with the ocean tides to create the channel known as The Gap. The view of waves pouring in and out is awe-inspiring and compelling.
The Torndirrup Peninsula is known as Torgadirrup to the Minang people, who are the traditional custodians of this country. Two Minang brothers had their differences and were fighting over a young woman. The elders became tired of their squabbling and sent them to a place near The Gap. They made the brothers stand on either side of The Gap. One brother was good at throwing spears while the other was good at throwing boomerangs. As the brothers struck each other with their weapons, they both fell into the water. The brother who was struck in the back by a boomerang turned into a shark. The fin on the shark is the boomerang. The brother who was hit by the spear turned into a stingray. Story courtesy of Noongar people.
