Kerr Notch and Phantom Ship Overlook Details
Located at the intersection of East Rim Drive and Pinnacle Drive, the Phantom Ship Overlook at Kerr Notch offers great views of the Phantom Ship. The silhouette of this 300-foot-long, 16-foot-high island of jagged rock looks remarkably like an old ship. Depending on the lighting, the island may stand out sharply against the crystal blue water or blend in with the Dutton Cliffs, becoming something of an invisible "phantom." The island is actually the tip of a large ridge line that extends below the water's surface; it can be viewed up close on boat tours.
