Arch Rock

This is one of the strange rock formations on the island. Apparantly the story of how this was formed is as follows: There was a young girl who fell in love with the God of the sea. However, the god of the sea rejected her and she was heartbroken. She cried and cried until her tears became a torrent. They washed a whole in the rock. When the god of the sea saw what torment she was in he decided that her love must be true and took her to live with him. Apparantly there is another theory on this that deals with the ice age and erosion and glaciers, but the island people believe that its not very likely.
