Can anyone identify this beach, about 10km north of Leeman?
Submitted by paulsmez on Thu, 2012-11-22 13:05
It looks like it might be a good spot for beach camping, although there does appear to be somesort of permanent residence there. Does anyone know anything about it, like whether it's suitable for camping/fishing?
Thanks guys,
Smez.

Hi Paulsmez,Went there a few
Hi Paulsmez,
Went there a few years ago now. The jetty is for a couple of cray boats that operate out of there.
The structure you can see up towards the point is a couple of abandoned shacks. Wedge island style sort of.
Would be a good spot to camp with one of the old buildings and the trees probably providing a bit of shelter from the wind and sun.
Nice little beach for a swim and the Tailor and Herring fishing wasn`t bad.
I reckon if the shacks are still there then the rangers probably couldn`t say to much about you camping there.

We had a shack about 7k's
We had a shack about 7k's north of gumtree bay. Best diving and fishing I've ever done. We had one little rock that used to produce heaps of crays. Ah the olden shack days.
Love the West!
