Cemetery Beach Park

West Coast Australia


Named for its location opposite the town's old cemetery, this grassy beachfront park is primed for barbecues and picnics, and there's a large kids' playground. From November to February, sea turtles come out to lay eggs by night; if you want to watch, follow the turtle-watching guidelines set out by the visitor centre.
