Aussie makes a strange discovery on Google Maps

In a rather unexpected discovery on Google Maps, an Australian woman came across a collection of man-made peninsulas that look strikingly like phallic shapes.

The eagle-eyed Aussie shared her discovery of the penis-shaped landmasses to social media, which can be found in Southport on the Gold Coast.

Australians reacted quickly to the discovery.

‘The penis-ular…. That’s what I’ll call it,” said one.

A second added: ‘Only buds would live there.

“What year were these houses built?” a third joked.

A fourth added: “How embarrassing it would be to live the short life.”

However, the last laugh came from a resident who shared a beautiful photo of a backyard pool overlooking the canal, located on one of the penis-shaped landmasses.

“I will suffer through it,” she wrote.

Both locals and international social media users quickly noticed the interesting design of the area and were highly amused

Residential canals on the Gold Coast were first constructed in the 1950s and construction has continued since then.

The canals are extensions of the Nerang River, but there are more to the south along Tallebudgera Creek and Currumbin Creek and to the north along the Gold Coast Broadwater, South Stradbroke Island, Coomera River and southern Moreton Bay.

Early canal developments such as Florida Gardens and Isle of Capri were under construction during a flood in 1954. More recently, canals such as Harbor Quays and Riverlinks were completed in 2007.

The city has more than 890 kilometers of built-up waterfront residential area, providing homes for a population of more than 80,000 residents.
