Take a break from urban living and enjoy a day exploring some of Western Australia’s finest natural wonders. After 1.5 hours, we stop at Lancelin’s lookout. It has the largest network of dunes in Western Australia. The white dunes contrast with the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.

Visitors can explore the Nambung National Park and witness the unique Pinnacles desert at sunset. The Pinnacles, made of shells, have been around for millions of years when the land was underwater. It is best to visit at dusk when the crowds are gone and the limestone pillars emerge from the desert, creating a lunar-like atmosphere as the colours change over the rocks.
