Wedge Dunes Sunset

Wedge Dunes Sunset

Wikipedia:
""Wedge Island is located north of Lancelin and South of Cervantes on the Western Australian coast. The name mainly refers to the mainland settlement but also refers to a 400 metres (1,300 ft) long wedge shaped island located just south of "the point". The island itself is a declared nature reserve.

The settlement is home to approximately 350 beach shacks that are used by crayfishermen and holiday-goers. Wedge can be accessed via bush tracks and the beach if the tide is out. The beach and some of the tracks are on a military firing range and are cut off to the public during live firing.
""

It is an area of pristine coastline, but an extremely harsh environment. No water or electricity and the temperatures can be unbearably hot with very little shelter from the sun.
