This rock isn’t something you can reach to as it’s in middle of the sea close to the shore area. I don’t think swimming to this point is easy too. But you can enjoy it from the shore.
Nice spot along the coastal trail, particularly at sunset.
Beautiful view but it was windy so rag up. 😊

Reviews
Visitors to Doorway Rock appreciate the unique and picturesque view of this rock formation from the shore, as swimming to it is challenging due to its location in the middle of the sea. The walking trail around the cliff offers a pleasant experience for many, with some mentioning references to a blowhole in the area. The view from Obelisk road showcases both Archway Rock and Doorway Rock, providing a beautiful contrast against the ocean. While there is no designated tourist area to stand and admire Doorway Rock up close, visitors find it a nice spot along the coastal trail, especially at sunset.Review score

There is a walking trail around the cliff. You can enjoy the walk while observing the rock.
Great walking trail. Semi sealed so accessible by many. Found references on information boards about a blowhole in the area but couldn't find any signage or evidence that there is one. Will have to come back and explore more when I don't have little ones with me
