The Real Outback?

I feel like I've seen true Australia now - the Pinnacles 2 weeks ago, and then yesterday WhiteHills Park in Mandurah.

 
 

It looks totally deserted, but every half hour or so another SUV would drive by.

  It was amazing - we were driving in a 4WD SUV & you have to lower the air in your tires so you can take the beach road & drive on the beach.  It was wild.  So much fun.  The beach was really windy and the waves were too much for me, they kept knocking me over. I got so much sand in my hair that I washed it twice and I'm still finding more.
