kilometres of saline, brackish, and
freshwater lakes. Connected to
the Indian Ocean through the
Dawesville Channel and south into
the Harvey Estuary, it’s also one
of Australia’s most spectacular
playgrounds for boating, 昀椀shing,
crabbing, and wildlife encounters.
With a Mediterranean climate,
summer is perfect for cooling off in
the water, while autumn and spring
invite nature walks, birdwatching
and e-bike adventures. Fishing is
a way of life here. Cast a line

the bridges to chase herring,
sand whiting and bream or go
crabbing during late summer and
autumn to scoop the famous blue
swimmer crab.
In winter, lush green landscapes
thrive as inland waterways 昀氀ow,
revealing a different but equally
beautiful side to Mandurah.
