Irwin Inlet

Irwin Inlet is a tranquil location to take a break in your travels and enjoy a picnic by the water.

The sand spit at the mouth of the inlet is popular with fishermen from Peaceful Bay by four-wheel-drive access along the beach. Wet your fishing line but you must have a Recreational Fishing licence which you can purchase on line from the Department of Fisheries, Western Australia. Bag limits apply.

Try scenic saltwater paddling to the inlet mouth along narrow channels or row up the Kent River or Bow River.

Getting there
Turn onto Peaceful Bay Road from South Coast Highway. Either put-in at Bow River (turn left onto dirt track a short distance from highway, then turn left again - deep water) or at roadside picnic area about 5km from highway - inlet is very shallow here.
