Wave Rock is a spectacularly surreal experience. Located near the small town of Hayden, just 350 kilometres east of Perth, Wave Rock is an amazing prehistoric attraction; a giant wave just about to break!

Wave Rock stands 15 metres tall and 110 metres long; resembling a wave, frozen in time, on the verge of crashing into the sandy base below. The rock is suggested to be 2,700 million years old; which extraordinarily is pre-dinosaur era. The fantastic granite finish, in beautiful stripes of grey reds and yellows, was created during years of erosion and from the rain washing chemical deposits down the rocks face. The Wave is not a separate rock, but an overhanging wall on the northern side of a granite outcrop known as Hyden Rock.

 
Within the Wake Rock reserve there are many additional attractions; which bare resemblance to this prehistoric gem. Whilst in the area explore Hippo’s Yawn, Breakers, and the Humps.
