Day Trips from Perth to Nambung National Park

Escape the city lights and experience the Pinnacles at their most magical on this sunset-to-stars adventure along Western Australia’s Coral Coast. Designed to avoid the crowds, this tour blends epic coastal scenery, ancient landscapes, and unforgettable stargazing. Travel north from Perth to scenic coastal lookouts like Guilderton Beach Lookout, where white sand dunes meet the turquoise Indian Ocean. Depending on conditions, explore Nilgen Nature Reserve’s native bushland or enjoy a relaxed walk at Hangover Bay, with chances to spot marine life offshore. Arrive at Nambung National Park as the afternoon light fades and the crowds disperse. Wander among the otherworldly limestone pillars of the Pinnacles Desert at sunset, when shifting colours transform the landscape. As night falls, enjoy a locally sourced picnic dinner before stargazing under some of WA’s darkest skies using a telescope, learning about planets and constellations.

Escape the city and dive into a day of stunning landscapes, sweet treats, and natural wonders on our Pinnacles Day Tour! From sampling lavender ice cream or handmade chocolates in Yanchep, to feasting seaside at Cervantes’ famous Lobster Shack, every stop is a delight. Wander the Lake Thetis boardwalk to see ancient stromatolites, then marvel at wildflowers in bloom (seasonal) before arriving at the show-stopping Pinnacles Desert. Stroll among thousands of towering limestone spires and visit the Discovery Centre to uncover their incredible story. With epic photo ops, fun facts, and coastal vibes all day long, this tour is packed with adventure—and you’ll be back in Perth by 7:00 PM with memories to last a lifetime!
