Lake Thetis Stromatolites

Lake Thetis Stromatolites is a saline coastal lake located about 2 kilometres inland from Cervantes in the Shire of Dandaragan, Western Australia. It is one of only a few places in the world where living marine stromatolites occur. The dome-shaped microbial structures, built by cyanobacteria, are visible along the shoreline via a boardwalk. The lake is valued for its scientific significance and offers visitors a rare opportunity to see ancient life forms in a natural setting.
