Zuytdorp Cliffs, Limestone cliffs in Shark Bay, Australia.
The Zuytdorp Cliffs extend 150 kilometers along Western Australia's coast, reaching heights of 250 meters above the Indian Ocean level near Womerangee Hill.
Named after a Dutch East India Company merchant ship that sank in 1712, the cliffs mark the location of one of Australia's most significant maritime disasters.
Aboriginal communities have inhabited the coastal region for thousands of years, maintaining traditional connections to the land and its maritime resources.
Access to the cliffs requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle through unpaved roads, and visitors need to carry water supplies due to limited facilities.
The limestone formations contain numerous caves and geological structures that provide nesting sites for multiple seabird species throughout the year.
