This is an amazing site!! Strange rock formation hey!! It's even better walking underneath it and looking up. You'll find it right in the scrub in the middle of nowhere just west of Margaret River. You can do a day trip there and it's definately well worth it!!
Wave Rock is located at Hyden which is in between Perth and Esperance so if you are doing the bottom half on Australia then my suggestion is to go south via Margaret River and Albany, cut across the bottom to Esperance and then up through Lake King past Hyden & Wave Rock back to Perth. Quite an adventure....and well worth doing :o)

Wave Rock is located to the north of Hyden which is about 350KMs away from Perth.
Wave Rock doesn't sleep! so you can go see it at Midnight!! And the fees charged is just a parking ticket! There's also accodomation available at the Wave Rock Country or the township of Hyden.

Go to Hyden (320 kilometres from Perth) and see the wave rock.
The Wave Rock is 15 by 110 metres and has vertical bands of colour. These colours are formed by washing chemicals down its face. In the area there are several other rock formations such as the Hippo's yawn, The Falls, and the Breakers and these are all without walking distance of the wave rock - go and see them it is worthwhile!

5 kilometres east of the small town of Hyden in Western Australia’s wheat belt is the Wave Rock. This has to be the state’s strangest rock formation. The large granite wave has been created by chemical erosion over thousands of years, and a reaction with rainwater has caused the red and grey stripes on the rock. Nearby there are other rock formations such as the Hippo’s yawn, the breakers and the Facing Wave Rock. While about 20 kilometres northeast of the town of Hyden is Mulka’s Cave and here there are several Aboriginal rock paintings to be seen.
There is a visitor’s centre in Hyden (08) 9880 5182 which is open daily.
