Guides provide fascinating narratives about the bunkers’ construction, usage, and their role in Australia’s defense during the 1940s. The echoes of history resonate through these aging concrete structures, as the ocean, now slowly reclaiming them, adds to the bittersweet feeling of witnessing history slip away. Make sure to explore these landmarks while you can—these relics are gradually being eroded by the forces of nature.
