Shark Bay - We left Billabong Roadhouse and drove on up the Highway until we reached the turn off for Shark Bay, known to the local Malgana people as Gutharraguda, meaning two bays. It is a World Heritage listed site for its beauty and abundant prehistoric life forms, evolution in action and wildlife refuges. It is made up of the Francois Peron National Park, the Shark Bay Marine Park and Hamelin Pool Marine Nature Reserve. Nearby is Shell Beach, a Discovery Centre, Eagle Bluff and a Discovery Trail - this is a great place for families - all the above is free and you get to see some amazing things and learn a little too. It is a sleepy little place but well worth driving from attraction to attraction over a couple of days.

Safe beach, huge range of bars, restaurants, shops (good prices too - bought a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses that were cheaper than the internet price!) Parking is free, safe and there's plenty of it. Great spot for a trip - and remember to fit in AQWA! ????

Great boat launching facilities, security & wash-down bays available. Boat supplies & fuel available. Casual dining at the Fish Shack with great fish & chips & snacks, or fine dining at the Coast Café. Fishing platforms with disabled access or simply launch your boat and enjoy crabbing on the Estuary or fishing close by in the ocean. Terrific starting point for lazy days up the rivers or a day trip into Mandurah town. Most days of the year you will witness the amazing local dolphins at play. A truly magical place not to miss!

The marina is a great place to go and throw a line in off the rocks. We went sunrise to about 11am. Plenty of Tailor and Herring and even hooked onto some big mulloway. Great little spot!

The Royal Perth Yacht Club is one of the oldest yacht clubs in Western Australia (WA).Royal Perth is also one of only two yacht clubs on the Swan River to have been granted a royal charter. The yacht club is in Crawley, on Pelican Point. The clubrooms are well-appointed, they are often used for functions and weddings; I have been there several times, they have gone well. Royal Perth is right on the river, parking is usually available. The yacht club caters for all levels of sailors, from novices to big ocean-going racing yachts. By the way, if you are interested in sailing, the maxi yachts are often looking for crew. Royal Perth has a friendly rivarly with Royal Freshwater Bay, known as "Freshie."
