Dongara / Port Denison January
Submitted by Piggy on Tue, 2026-10-20 13:15
Heading to Dongara / Port Denison in January and hoping to get some advice. Have done a bit of research but only found dribs and drabs.
Main thing I want to know is can you catch Blue Manna crabs there? Seen snippets of info can get them in the harbour area? I will have a few families with lots of kids with me and they all love crabbing. I will have a 3.5m tinny with a 15hp on it so hoping that there are crabs or hopefully squid or something for the kids to catch not far from shore?
Any info, tips, pointers anything would be appreciated!!
Cheers

crabs
mate blue manna crabs run right up the coast. I've seen them at karratha so there should be reason they would'nt be at dongra.
The thing you'll have to fight is the wind usaully in by 9 am.
that why the trees grow horizontally.
