Cervantes (including The Pinnacles)
Quiet fishing village near the remarkable Pinnacles
Located 245 km north of Perth, Cervantes is a pleasant, rather underdeveloped, fishing village and holiday destination with three jetties, a very good motel, a caravan park and a rock lobster processing plant.
Like Jurien, which lies to the north, it has that temporary and transient feel of a place which hasn't quite settled itself in. While it has more permanent and gracious holiday homes than Jurien there are still many houses built of fibro and permalum to cater for enthusiastic fishermen. The town's fishing fleet nearly doubles in the rock lobster season. Like all of the coast on the Central West the town is surrounded by spectacular displays of wildflowers in the spring. The Nambung National Park is particularly impressive.
