Stretching for kilometres along the Great Southern coastline, Cheynes Beach combines clear aqua water and white sand with plenty of ways to enjoy the outdoors. Swim, snorkel, stand-up paddle board or surf, cast a line from the beach, explore by 4WD or spend time walking and birdwatching in the surrounding coastal landscape.
Nature is a highlight here year-round. The area supports diverse native flora and wildlife, while the coastal heathlands are particularly rewarding for birdwatchers seeking species including the Noisy Scrub-bird, Western Bristlebird and Western Whipbird.
Each season brings a different reason to visit: look for migrating humpback and southern right whales offshore during the cooler months, try salmon fishing in autumn, search for wildflowers and birds in spring, or make the most of long summer days beside the water.
