History
The Pinnacles are limestone formations created from ancient marine deposits and sit within Nambung National Park, a distinctive karst landscape on Western Australia’s coast.

Bring layered clothing
Desert temperatures drop quickly after sunset; pack a warm outer layer and a hat to stay comfortable during stargazing.
Hydrate before you go
Carry a reusable water bottle and drink often—sandboarding and dune climbs are deceptively dehydrating.
Protect your camera
Sand and salt spray can damage gear; use a zippered bag and bring a lens cloth for quick cleaning.
Follow guide instructions
Stay with the group at the Pinnacles and on the dunes for safety and to protect fragile formations.
Closed-toe hiking shoes
Provide grip on sand and protect feet during dune climbs.
Warm layers and beanie
Desert nights become cold quickly after sunset.
Headlamp or torch
Hands-free light for moving around vehicles and campsites after dark.
Reusable water bottle (1L+)
Stay hydrated through dune activity and the evening.
