This looks like another planet. The different sand dunes are crazily different but so epic. While you briefly had me at same boarding (sitting down of course) you momentarily lost me at sand flies. But it looks tons of fun, and noted about the hat. While I wouldn't be getting the lobster at the Lobster shack I might be interested in the tour, and would probably get some yummy chips. I also definitely appreciated the "shell out for an upgrade" pun, intentional or not.
Yes, the different parts of the trip were so different. I think that is part of what made the day so enjoyable. As to the pun, this came from our tour guide. I'm sure he has said it a hundred times. It brought the typical groans and laughs.
This is PERFECT timing! I'm just starting to plan a family trip to Australia and this is RIGHT up my alley. I've always wanted to go dune buggy-ing? (is that a word? now it is) and sand surfing. I had no idea I could do that in Australia. Definitely saving this for later.
Thanks, I'm glad I could help. And if you are worrying about it being on the west side, just fly. Australia is a BIG country. Aussies fly everywhere, flights can be reasonably priced in advance.
Australia has always fascinated me as a country and continent, it's very western even though it's closer to Asia, and it has such unique wildlife. If it weren't for the deep blue sky, you would think the Pinnacles Desert was a different planet with its unique rock formations. Sandboarding looks like a very approachable and exhilarating activity for just about anyone, and a tour of a lobster packing facility sounds like a fun activity - though I personally would pay for the lobster upgrade - technically you are seeing how it's made!
I completely agree. The pinnacles were just so different! I'm sure that the next time I go back, I will probably include these places again. I could see that even a slight change in the weather could change the experience.
My Australian adventure planning just got another location added to the list. I love the look of the white sand. After doing a dune buggy ride in Peru, I could almost feel the sand itching in my ears and the grit between my teeth while remembering the sheer exhilaration as I read about Lanceline! This sounds like a fabulous day trip!
Unfortunately, my year abroad in Australia was cut short due to the pandemic and I never made it to Perth. Sandy deserts are my favourite environment Would have loved to see the dunes at Lanceline and slide down in the warm sand. The pinnacles were also on my list.
I would welcome any opportunity to ride the dunes - snowboarding, on a vehicle or even on a magic carpet. The rock pinnacles look very intriguing and made me think that in some million years ago, they might have been the summit of some mountain formation #flyingbaguette
Yes, the pinnacles were out of this world. I was hoping for a longer stop to be able to venture further into the waste lend, but not on this trip. The sand dunes really were fun.

It truly was. Although the day was long, it was well worth it. And yes, the sand gets everywhere!

You would have loved them, and western Australia. IT was one of my favorite parts of my recent trip.
