Spent the day here and absolutely loved it! The small rolling waves in the crystal clear blue water were perfect for teaching my daughter to surf. However, it's definitely not a hidden gem - there were hundreds of other beachgoers!

I spent the day at this beach and really enjoyed it! The small, gentle waves in the clear blue water were perfect for teaching my daughter how to surf. However, it's definitely not a hidden gem - there were tons of other people there enjoying the beach too!

It's quite a trek from Esperance, but definitely worth it! We were fortunate to visit on a weekday and avoid the school holiday crowds. The lack of an entry fee probably helps keep the beach from getting too crowded. It's a hidden gem.
