Waves and rocks, timeless beauty.

Wave Rock is one of the top ten geological wonders in the world. This huge rock, about 110 meters long and 15 meters high, stands in a forest. It has to be said that nature has bestowed too many amazing masterpieces on Western Australia. As its name suggests, Wave Rock looks like a wave that has been frozen in time, with varying depths of lines on its surface, making this giant rock look even more vivid. Regarding the formation of the Wave Rock, it is said that it was formed about 2.5 billion years ago. The long-term erosion caused by wind and rain, as well as the sudden changes in temperature between day and night, gradually eroded this huge granite rock into the shape of waves. The colored lines on the Wave Rock are formed by the chemical reaction caused by the rainwater washing away the surface chemical substances while producing chemical reactions. Afternoon is the best time to shoot the Wave Rock, when the various colors and lines of the Wave Rock are the most vivid of the day, and you can clearly see the black, brown, gray, red, and tan stripes. Near the Wave Rock, there is another special rock called Hippos Yawn, which is a hollow rock named after its shape resembling a yawning hippopotamus. However, compared to the Wave Rock, there are not many tourists coming here, and this rock is rarely mentioned. 📮[Travel Tips] ▪️The Wave Rock can be climbed to the top by following the walking path along the side to experience conquering the giant waves. ▪️The admission fee for the Blowhole is charged per car, with a rate of 12 AUD per regular private car.
