The Whalebone Arch in front of Christ Church Cathedral is one of Stanley’s most recognizable landmarks. Built from the jawbones of blue whales, it reflects the islands’ historic connection to the whaling era. The simple setting and alignment with the cathedral make it a popular and easily accessible photo spot.
