Departing Perth in the afternoon, you’ll enjoy scenic coastal views on the drive north, with potential stops along the way such as Yanchep National Park or a local beach for a stretch and some sightseeing.
Upon arrival at the Pinnacles, stroll through the fascinating desert landscape and marvel at the thousands of limestone pillars rising from the yellow sands.
