Delft Growing Stone

The inhabitants of the area held great reverence for a rock that had been growing in size over the years. Located near a kovil, devotees would hold pooja ceremonies near the rock due to its resemblance to a cobra hood. Interestingly, this growth pattern is not unique, as another rock by the sea shows a similar phenomenon. This rock is shaped like a canoe and is believed to have formed due to calcite build-up caused by sea waves washing over it. It seems that growing rocks is a common occurrence in Delft Island.
