Description

Be picked up from our designated locations near your accommodation (Perth CBD only) and embark on your 9+hr tour departing 12.30pm-2.30pm to discover the magic of the Pinnacles Desert on a guided tour. Heading north west to the Turquoise Coast we keep eyes open for native wildlife such as kangaroos and emus. First stop is in Lancelin for a snack break, then off you go to experience the thrill of sandboarding down giant white sand dunes. Afterwards, reboard the bus and visit Nilgen Lookout to see seasonal wildflowers (spring time only and subject to daily weather conditions) and admireΒ views over the Indian Ocean. Should time permit, go for a walk along the beach at Hangover Bay to see native plants that Aboriginals used for food and medicine when they lived off the land so many years ago. If we stop at Nilgen Nature Reserve we may not have time to stop here at Hangover Bay as well. Enjoy dinner in the middle of the the Pinnacles Desert, accompanied by a glass of Western Australia's fine wine, or possibly enjoy a tea, coffee or hot chocolate, as you watch the sunset over the Indian Ocean where you will later, marvel at the incredible sights above as you are taken on a guided tour of the night sky with Astro binoculars and telescopic equipment.Β See planets, stars, galaxies, nebulas, the moon and other fascinating sights Once the night tour is completed, your guide will return you to your Perth CBD pickup location.
