Attractions in Western Australia for Backpackers - Wave Rock

Wave Rock is a unique natural landmark location about 300km south-east of Perth in Western Australia. Despite it's rural location, it is often a popular tourist attraction for backpackers and other visitors to WA. Japanese tourists especially love visiting Wave Rock and the location was actually used on japanese TV for Japan's Next Top Model in 2008. The rock itself is about 110m long, 14m high and resembles a large ocean wave that's about to break.

For Backpackers visiting Perth, it can be very expensive doing a tour to Wave Rock so we recommend getting some friends together and perhaps hiring a car or campervan to make the trek down there. Being a long drive, it's not a bad idea to stay at Wave Rock overnight as there is plenty of accommodation options available only metres from the main attraction. You might also be able to squeeze onto one of our periodic Backpacker Tours to Wave Rock where we spend the night camped under the stars before heading back to Perth later the next afternoon.
