Australia has some spectacularly strange place names strewn around the country. Some are downright rude, while others may make you blush. Take a look at the weirdest names out there.
Dismal Swamp, TAS - Dismal Swamp is at the northern end of the Tarkine Wilderness. The 640 hectare sinkhole is the largest sinkhole in the southern hemisphere.
Devils Kitchen, TAS - Devils Kitchen is an unusual rock formation carved by the sea. It is located near Doo Town, on the eastern coast of the Tasman Peninsula.
Useless Loop, WA - The first half of Useless Loop's unusual name was bestowed upon it by French explorer Henri-Louis de Saulces de Freycinet because he believed the inviting harbour to be entirely blocked by a sandbar.
Come by Chance, NSW - George and William Colless purchased a sheep station and named it 'Come by Chance' to reflect their surprise at being able to make such a purchase in this area. The town was later named after the property.
Eggs and Bacon Bay, TAS - Who's hungry? Animal rights group PETA has taken issue with the name of southern Tasmania's Eggs and Bacon Bay and is lobbying for it to be changed to a vegan alternative.
Coffin Bay, SA - Originally named Coffin's Bay, this town has a population of 584 and is famous for its delicious oysters, which they farm in the pristine waters.
Lovely Bottom, TAS - There are lots of bottoms in Tasmania. A bottom – in geographical terms – derives from the Old English for broad river valley or valley floor, in case you were wondering.
