Salmon Beach

Walk an unspoilt beach with thundering surf beneath rugged cliffs or take in the dramatic coastal scenery from numerous lookouts.

Salmon Beach is just west of Windy Harbour and often bears the brunt of the winds and swells from the Southern Ocean. Although it is a popular destination in holiday periods, the sense of isolation and space is never lost.

A short walk from the car park through dunes takes you to the beach. In one direction are limestone cliffs rising out of the sea, waves crashing at their feet and in the other a stretch of sand backed by dunes. Walk the length of the beach and soak up the sights and sounds of this wild place.

For those looking for adventure, Salmon Beach provides decent surfing opportunities. Anglers might like to try their hand at catching dinner from the beach. The beach offers no protected areas for swimming.

Salmon Beach is approximately 1¼ hours from Pemberton. It is one of the few sites in the D’Entrecasteaux National Park which is accessible by sealed road.
