Amid the seemingly endless expanses of cultivated land that typifies the Wheatbelt, are natural features unique to this part of the state. Inland, the arid and otherwise prosaic landscape is distinguished by granite outcrops hewn into wondrous shapes by natural forces, expansive dazzling salt lakes and beautiful but fleeting carpets of wild flowers. The coastal region is sand, surf and the Pinnacles.

New Norcia. Australias only monastic town. The Benedictine monks are famous not only for the Spanish architecture but also their bread and olive oil. �
The Pinnacles, Cervantes. Eerie limestone pillars in the dunes of Nambung National Park. �
Wave Rock, Hyden, . Possibly the Wheatbelts most popular spot and definitely the best surf you will find inland. A 15m high smooth wave cut into the rock by erosion and striped by mineral run off is a monolithic sight to stand under. �
