The Pinnacles are limestone formations contained within Nambung National Park, near the town of Cervantes, Western Australia.
The Pinnacles remained unknown to most Australians until the 1960s, when the area was added to Nambung National Park.[3] The area receives over 250,000 visitors a year. A visitor precinct and interpretive centre was completed in March 2008.[4]
The best season to see the Pinnacles is spring from August to October, as the days are mild and wildflowers start to bloom. The pinnacle formations are best viewed in the early morning or late afternoon as the play of light brings out the colours and the extended shadows of the formations delivers a contrast that brings out their features. Most animals in the park are nocturnal, but emus and kangaroos can be seen during the daytime, more commonly in the evening or early morning.

There nambung national park Pinnacles desert 17km away from Cervantes. Pillars of various sizes on a red desert that stretches to the wonders. Pillars of various sizes on a red desert that stretches to the wonders. Itdanda or even stone pillar height is 5m. As if to evoke the same mistake on a different planet. More than 15 000 and that pillar're well, one of the most wonderful scenery that can be found on the coral coast. Pinnacles desert is a desolate place, but yiranda wild animals frequently appearing such as kangaroos and emus. The monument of the wilderness, also called pillars are been formed by weathering centuries. Miranda is a sea shell made of limestone mixed with finely crushed powder like sand. Pinnacles desert is a mystical blend of wind and Mother Nature created a shell on the beach of the Indian Ocean. So fascinating place for landscape photographers seemed even rare.

The Pinnacles remained unknown to most Australians until 1967 when the area was gazetted as a reserve, which was later combined with two adjacent reserves to form Nambung National Park in 1994. As of 2011, the national park received about 150,000 visitors a year. A visitor precinct and interpretive centre was opened in October 2008.
The best season to see the Pinnacles is spring from August to October, as the days are mild and wildflowers start to bloom. The pinnacle formations are best viewed in the early morning or late afternoon as the play of light brings out the colours and the extended shadows of the formations deliver a contrast that brings out their features. Most animals in the park are nocturnal, but emus and kangaroos can be seen during the daytime, more commonly in the evening or early morning.
The raw material for the limestone of the Pinnacles came from seashells in an earlier era that was rich in marine life. These shells were broken down into lime-rich sands that were blown inland to form high mobile dunes.[1] However, the manner in which such raw materials formed the Pinnacles is the subject of debate and three theories have been proposed.
The first theory states that they were formed as dissolutional remnants of the Tamala Limestone, i.e. that they formed as a result of a period of extensive solutional weathering (karstification). Focused solution initially formed small solutional depressions, mainly solution pipes, which were progressively enlarged over time, resulting in the pinnacle topography. Some pinnacles represent cemented void infills (microbialites and/or re-deposited sand), which are more resistant to erosion, but dissolution still played the final role in pinnacle development.
A second theory states that they were formed through the preservation of tree casts buried in coastal aeolianites, where roots became groundwater conduits, resulting in the precipitation of indurated (hard) calcrete. Subsequent wind erosion of the aeolianite then exposed the calcrete pillars.
The Pinnacles
A third proposal suggests that plants played an active role in the creation of the Pinnacles, based on the mechanism that formed smaller “root casts” in other parts of the world. As transpiration drew water through the soil to the roots, nutrients and other dissolved minerals flowed toward the root—a process termed mass-flow that can result in the accumulation of nutrients at the surface of the root, if the nutrients arrive in quantities greater than that needed for plant growth. In coastal aeolian sands that consist of large amounts of calcium (derived from marine shells), the movement of water to the roots would drive the flow of calcium to the root surface. This calcium accumulates at high concentrations around the roots and over time is converted into a calcrete. When the roots die, the space occupied by the root is subsequently also filled with a carbonate material derived from the calcium in the former tissue of the roots, and possibly also from water leaching through the structures. Although evidence has been provided for this mechanism in the formation of root casts in South Africa, the evidence is still required for its role in the formation of the Pinnacle

Cervantes - Western Australia
Cervantes is commonly used as a base for people who visit the Pinnacles located 17km south.
Like Lancelin, Cervantes is another cray fishing town and the population virtually doubles in the cray fishing season. (Note. The Western Rock Lobster is actually a crayfish but it was re-named for the American market to avoid confusion with the crawfish. These crayfish are naturally red unlike other species that only turn red when cooked.)
The town remains less developed than its larger neighbour Jurien but is a firm favourite with holiday makers from Perth who are looking for a place near the beach to relax and fish.
Nearby Lake Thetis is one of the few places you will find stromatolites in W.A. but in this area they are somewhat over-shadowed by the Pinnacles..

Perth trip 2016: Yanchep, Pinnacles and Lancelin (Part 4)
Today we went on a self-drip trip to areas North of Perth.
First stop was Yanchep where we saw wild kangaroos and other animals. Then we had lobsters for lunch at Lobster Shack. After that it was the Pinnacles. Finally we went sand boarding at Lancelin.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable side trip. If we were to do it again, I would probably stayed a night at Lancelin instead of driving straight back to Perth.
