Pinnacles Desert Lobster and Yanchep Tour

Join us for a fun-filled Pinnacles Day Tour — a one-day escape to Western Australia’s most jaw-dropping natural wonders! Leave the city behind and hit the road for an adventure packed with epic landscapes, delicious treats, and fascinating stories.

Start the day with a visit to Yanchep Chocolate Drops Tearoom. The Tearoom serves up handcrafted chocolates and other irresistible goodies. Morning tea is included, so sit back and enjoy the local flavours! Next stop is Cervantes and the famous Lobster Shack, where you can dig into a mouth-watering seafood lunch (own expense) while soaking in stunning coastal views.

After lunch, stretch your legs on the Lake Thetis boardwalk, home to the ancient Stromatolites — the oldest living fossils on the planet! Depending on the season, we’ll wander through colourful wildflower country, spotting banksias, kangaroo paws, and other native blooms bursting with life. Then it’s off to the spectacular Pinnacles Desert in Nambung National Park. First, pop into the Discovery Centre to uncover the story of these ancient limestone formations. Then walk among thousands of eerie, majestic stone pillars rising from the golden sands — it’s like nowhere else on Earth!

After an unforgettable day of discovery, we’ll cruise back to Perth, arriving around 7:00pm — cameras full, smiles wide, and hearts happy!

Meals: Lunch (not included) and morning tea (included). Driving distance: 420km. Walking distance: ~1km / 2km. *A moderate level of fitness is required to complete the walks.
