The Desert

The Desert, one kilometre south-east of Tangalooma, is appropriately named. These bare, white dunes with patches of colour are in stark contrast with the thick vegetation which surrounds them. Wind shapes and reshapes the dunes into sweeping crescents, smooth in parts, scored with parallel furrows in others.

The Desert is a popular place for visitors to try sandboarding. Basic Sand boards (which after much experimenting we have found are the best!) can be purchased onboard Micat.
