Excursion d'aventure d'observation des étoiles au coucher du soleil au départ de Perth
Description
Échappez aux lumières de la ville et vivez les Pinacles à leur maximum de magie lors de cette aventure au coucher du soleil le long de la côte de corail de l'Australie occidentale. Conçu pour éviter la foule, ce circuit mêle paysages côtiers épiques, paysages anciens et observation des étoiles inoubliable. Partez de Perth vers le nord pour rejoindre des points de vue côtiers pittoresques comme Guilderton Beach Lookout, où les dunes de sable blanc rencontrent l'océan Indien turquoise. Selon les conditions, explorez la brousse natale de la réserve naturelle de Nilgen ou profitez d'une promenade détendue à Hangover Bay, avec des chances d'apercevoir la vie marine au large. Arrivée au parc national de Nambung alors que la lumière de l'après-midi s'estompe et que la foule se disperse. Promenez-vous parmi les piliers calcaires d'un autre monde du désert des Pinacles au coucher du soleil, lorsque les couleurs changeantes transforment le paysage. À la tombée de la nuit, profitez d'un dîner pique-nique local avant d'observer les étoiles sous certains des ciels les plus sombres de l'ouest de l'État à l'aide d'un télescope, pour en apprendre davantage sur les planètes et les constellations.

Itinéraire
Préparez-vous, notre aventure commence bientôt! Le bus est en route, alors prenez votre équipement, sentez l'excitation, et prenons la route! Découvrez la magie de la côte Ouest lors de notre visite d'une journée Pinnacles, où vous explorerez certains des paysages naturels les plus époustouflants de la région. Alors que le crépuscule tombe, vivez une aventure étoilée entourée d'animaux sauvages indigènes dans le désert enchanteur des Pinnacles.
À seulement 1h30 de Perth, notre premier arrêt est la ville balnéaire de Lancelin, où vous vous dégourdissez les jambes et admirez une vue spectaculaire sur le plus grand réseau de dunes de sable blanc et enneigé d'Australie occidentale, contrastant magnifiquement avec l'océan Indien turquoise. En raison de la fermeture temporaire des plages de Lancelin et du belvédère en raison des glissements de terrain et de l'érosion, notre arrêt alternatif sera Guilderton pour une vue panoramique sur la plage.
Environ 1,5 heure après avoir quitté Perth, nous faisons notre première escale dans la ville côtière de Lancelin pour un étirement rapide de la jambe et un point de vue panoramique. Connues pour avoir le plus grand réseau de dunes de sable d’Australie-Occidentale, les imposantes dunes blanches comme neige de Lancelin créent un contraste étonnant avec les eaux turquoises étincelantes de l’océan Indien au-delà.
Le Pinnacles Desert Discovery Centre, situé à l'entrée du parc national Nambung, offre des aperçus fascinants de la géologie, de la faune et du patrimoine autochtone des Pinnacles. Avec des affichages interactifs et des vues imprenables, c'est le point de départ idéal pour explorer ce paysage désertique unique.
Les Pinacles sont des formations calcaires frappantes surgissant des sables dorés du parc national de Nambung. Formés sur des milliers d'années, ces piliers naturels créent un paysage désertique surréaliste, avec des formes allant de flèches dentelées à des colonnes arrondies. Leur beauté étrange fait des Pinnacles l'une des merveilles naturelles les plus emblématiques et photographiées d'Australie-Occidentale.
Hangover Bay, près des Pinnacles dans le parc national de Nambung, est un endroit côtier paisible où l'océan Indien brille sous un ciel de coucher de soleil vibrant. C'est l'endroit idéal pour se détendre, avec des vagues douces, du sable doux et une fin sereine d'une journée d'exploration autour d'un délicieux dîner pique-nique.
Le parc national de Nambung, qui abrite le célèbre désert des Pinacles, présente un paysage époustouflant d'anciennes flèches calcaires surgissant de sable doré. Situé le long de la côte corallienne de l'Australie-Occidentale, le parc offre également une vue sur la côte, une faune indigène et des fleurs sauvages vibrantes au printemps.
Alors que nous revenons à votre point de retrait, asseyez-vous, détendez-vous et revivez la magie de la journée – plein de spectacles épiques, de rires et de moments inoubliables. Quelle aventure ! Notre heure de retour à Perth variera selon la période de l'année, entre 21h00 et 23h00 pour nous assurer de voir les meilleurs couchers de soleil et étoiles.

Quite a long ride but the final destination was definitely authentic and worth the time. Besides the main attraction, there was also plenty of other activities such as a pre-organized buffet at the Pinnacles parking lot and stargazing. Our tour guide, Anneliese, was very nice, informative, and equally as enthusiastic as every other tourist, so the overall trip felt even more enjoyable because of that. What to consider: the ride to the desert might take a long time, so it's best to bring along 1-2 700ml bottles of water (despite refilling stations at included pit stops) and to consider the weather, so as not to be under/over-prepared in terms of clothing.
Thank you so much for sharing your detailed feedback! We're delighted to hear that the destination felt authentic and that the additional activities like the buffet and stargazing enhanced your experience. We're also glad you appreciated Anneliese's enthusiasm and knowledge—she truly enjoys making sure everyone has a memorable trip.

Amazing experience band our guide Alisa was awesome. The bus ride was scenic and smooth, really enjoyed the informative tapis by our guide which really brought the spots to life. Although we couldn't quite see the the stars since it was a cloudy might but we did manage to see a few kangaroos which Kore than made up for it.

A great tour and experience, the tour guide Alessia was friendly, accommodating and very knowledgeable. The stop at Guilderton was perfect and the stop at Nilgen lookout was interesting. The Pinnacles desert at night is unique experience. The food and wine was great.

This tour was absolutely amazing & we would like to thank Annaliese (sorry, not sure of spelling) for sharing her wealth of knowledge on the Perth & surrounding areas. Our day was totally made when two kangaroos hopped on by, as we were walking out of the Pinnacles Desert. The picnic dinner that Annaliese prepared was very generous & much appreciated. Also your star gazing knowledge made the night extremely enjoyable, thank you so much for everything Annaliese, you're the best!!

My guide, Eren (who wore a unique hat with badges and had her hair in braids), was professional, cheerful, and had a great voice. I was so satisfied with her guiding style and itinerary. I could be fully immersed in my own journey even though there were many people. The pickup bus was convenient, and the dinner was also great!! I highly recommend this tour with her :)
Thanks so much for the lovely review! 😊 We're thrilled you enjoyed the Pinnacles Desert sunset and stargazing experience. It’s great to hear Eren’s guiding style helped make the day so enjoyable and immersive for you, and that you appreciated the convenience, dinner, and overall itinerary. Thanks for the recommendation, and we hope to see you again on another adventure!

Nice new vehicle and polite guide. We stopped at a small coastal town for a rest break and were advised to buy water from the general store as it was not provided. The second stop at a burnt out wildflower meadow seemed a pit pointless as the only thing to see was charred plants and there were no toilets at this stop. When we reached the pinnacles the guide pointed towards the discovery centre and the path towards the limestone formations. She did not accompany us and instead began setting up our picnic next to the car park. I noticed other tours had driven into the reserve as I was walking around: Dinner was simple supermarket salads and deli meats. There wasn’t enough room for everyone to sit a table and some of us ended up perched on a cold concrete fence to eat dinner: The star gazing was good and the guide was able to point out the planets and constellations. It was not as dark as it could have been as we were next to the carpark with people constantly coming and going.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We appreciate your honesty, as it helps us improve our future tours. We're glad you found the vehicle comfortable and the guide polite. However, we're sorry to hear that some aspects of the experience didn’t meet your expectations. The stop at the burnt-out meadow and the picnic setup may have felt underwhelming, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of amenities and the setup process. We're pleased to hear that the star gazing was enjoyable, even if the lighting conditions weren’t ideal. Your comments about the meal arrangements and the timing at the Pinnacles are very helpful, and we will take them into consideration to enhance future experiences. Thank you again for your insights!
A wonderful experience. This was a mother's day gift from my children. The bus was neat and clean and not overcrowded. Erin was our driver and tour guide. She was knowledgeable, warm and welcoming. The stop off at Guilderton was beautiful. The Pinnacles experience was enjoyable and after Erin's informative talk there was plenty of time to enjoy the 'museum' and wander the Pinnacles at your own pace. This was followed by a delicious dinner under the stars and despite the clouds, stargazing too. I highly recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt experience! We're thrilled that your Mother’s Day gift provided such a memorable day. It’s wonderful to hear that the bus was comfortable, and Erin’s warmth and knowledge made the tour special. The stop at Guilderton and the Pinnacles sound like highlights, and we're glad you enjoyed the time to explore at your own pace. The dinner under the stars, even with some clouds, must have been magical. We truly appreciate your high recommendation and hope to host you again for more unforgettable adventures!
This tour was Great! Planning was good, tourguides were amazing and friendly! The dessert looks beautifull during sunset. Dinner was also good.
