Similar to the Wave, the New Wave is a sandstone formation that is intriguing because of how undulating and colorful the rock is. It was originally formed by water erosion and is now being eroded solely by the wind.

While the Wave now requires a permit to visit, the New Wave does not have these restrictions, so is a good option if you are in Page.
