Pinnacles

We expected blobs on the sand.

But as soon as we arrived, we knew we were in for a treat.

The formations in the Pinnacles Desert are numbered in their hundreds (maybe thousands), and is an other-worldly collection of slender limestone peaks.  It seems there is no one theory on how they exactly formed, but rather 3 reasons are proposed.  Either way, they completely gobsmacked us!

There is a safari-type road that winds its way for 4km in and around the pinnacles, with many parking spots along the way.  Visitors are advised to "walk wherever you like", so you can get up close, touch the rough surface of these limestone sculptures, or stand back to take in the amazing view. 


If you look closely, you can see the road that the sign is referring to





The ocean is right behind
