the coastline extending from willyama bay to cape spencer consists of a number of bays such as cable bay and stenhouse bay with some prominent headlands such as rhino head and a line of cliffs between cable bay and stenhouse bay. from cape spencer to west cape, an unbroken line of cliffs ranging in height between 37 metres (121 feet) and 79 metres (259 feet) with some sandy beaches at their feet make up the south west coast of yorke peninsula. from west cape to pondalowie bay, the cliff line is of a relatively lower height. from the south end of pondalowie bay to gym beach, areas of sand dunes dominate the shoreline and the land immediately adjoining it with the exception of royston head and the cliff line extending eastward to dolphin beach. the land between the national park's boundary and the road system is dominated in part by a network of saline lakes.[7][8][9]
