Wave Rock is a striking natural rock formation located near the town of Hyden in Western Australia. This impressive geological feature, which stands about 15 meters tall and stretches for approximately 110 meters, resembles a giant, frozen ocean wave. Formed over 2.7 billion years, Wave Rock is composed of granite and has been shaped by centuries of erosion and weathering. The rock is part of the larger Hyden Rock formation, and its unique shape and colorful streaks of algae and minerals make it a popular destination for tourists and photographers.
