Parara Beach Whale Memorial

To mark this historic event it was suggested by a local resident that a memorial be established. Because Ardrossan is noted for its dolomite, dolomite boulders were placed in the same positions as the whales were when they were beached.

An area was set aside for the memorial boulders to be laid. Seven boulders were chosen in various sizes to represent the whale's size. The name plaques with the size of the whales were places onto each boulder. These boulders are now a memorial park at Parara Beach.
