Chinaman's Beach
A calm little bay at the mouth of the Murchison River, with shallow water and small waves. It's ideal for swimming, stand-up paddleboarding and watching the sunset.
Chinaman's Beach lies near the river mouth in the town centre. Sheltered by sandbars and reefs, it has small waves and clear water, making it Kalbarri's most family-friendly swimming beach. You can rent stand-up paddleboards or kayaks here. In the evening, head to the Chinaman's Point lookout to watch the sun sink into the Indian Ocean, and to see surfers riding the waves over the reefs beyond the river mouth. It's an easy walk from the town centre.
