Observatory Beach

West Beach WA

Sweeping cliffs and an epic sheer drop into the ocean set apart this hot spot – perfect for wind and kite surfers, promising awesome waves without the crowds. This beach is also great for surfing and the view from the car park is remarkable. A sunset over the Observatory is not to be missed! He.
