Native Dog Beach
A long sand beach on the west side of the peninsula, open to the Southern Ocean. Big swells make it good for surfing, beach fishing, and sunsets.
Native Dog Beach ('native dog' was the old local name for the Australian wild dog) lies on the western side of the Bremer Bay peninsula, open to the Southern Ocean. The beach is long, with frequent sizeable swells. Locals surf here and fish for Australian salmon from the sand. It is also good for long walks and watching the sunset. Rip currents are strong, so swimming is not recommended. Reach it from town via a gravel road to the south. Some sections need four-wheel drive. There are no facilities.
