Your safety

It’s great to escape everyday life and visit a park or reserve in WA. It is also important to us that you return safely to your family and friends. 

Always remember it is really important to plan when to visit. Read this safety information about swimming, bushwalking, fishing, snorkelling, kayaking and paddling and, mountain biking. Consider traveling with a personal location beacon (PLB). In the event you need to be rescued, it could save your life!

  • the use of unlicensed off road motorbikes or vehicles within Leschenault Peninsula Conservation Park is strictly forbidden.
  • mosquito repellent is a must when visiting the Peninsula.

Getting there

Leschenault Peninsula Conservation Park is in Australind, a two hour drive south of Perth and 15 minutes north of Bunbury.

Take the Old Coast Road from Bunbury to enjoy the views of the Leschenault Estuary before turning into the conservation park. Buffalo Road is sealed to the beach.

We recognise and acknowledge Aboriginal people as the traditional custodians of Leschenault Peninsula Conservation Park.
