What to expect

The Pinnacles Desert Discovery Centre is a great place for families to visit, located near the Pinnacles Desert where thousands of huge limestone pillars rise from the shifting yellow sands. The centre is a stepping stone into Nambung National Park, which has beautiful beaches, coastal dune systems, shady groves of tuart trees and low heathlands of plants that produce vibrantly coloured flowers between August and October. The park is home to a variety of unique landscapes, including the Pinnacles Desert, which covers an area of approximately 190 hectares and contains thousands of limestone pillars, some up to 5 meters high. Visitors can walk or drive around a 4km unsealed loop to explore the Pinnacles, and there is also a lookout point that gives a great overall view of the area. The centre encourages visitors to use all their senses to identify the hidden wonders and signs of life in the desert, making it a great place for families to learn and have fun together
