Spend the day in Western Australia's outdoors and walk amongst irresistibly cute koalas followed by some desert sand adventures. Begin your adventure with a visit to Yanchep National Park, home to a colony of koalas. Stroll on a board walk and you will see these delightful creatures from up close and personal. Grey kangaroos and black cockatoos are also a common sight at the park. Continue on to Lancelin where some exciting adventure in the sand awaits you. Nestled between the Indian Ocean and enormous white sand dunes, Lancelin is one of the most picturesque towns in Western Australia. Explore the white sand dunes in an exciting 4WD that will get your adrenaline surging.
If you're in the mood for more adventure, why not try sand boarding down the dunes. Continue on to the unusual natural formations of Pinnacles Desert. Thousands of surreal limestone pillars rising mysteriously out of the stark yellow desert sands will hold you fascinated as you begin a walking tour. If you're lucky to be at the desert in early morning or evening light, you will be captivated by the sight of the pillars standing against the purple and orange hues of the sky. A photographic wonder, you will savour the beauty of the Pinnacles Desert. As the day winds to an end, the Western Australian outdoors will have you yearning to come back and experience more!
