Yanchep Lagoon is a favourite beach to visit with the kids. Catch it on a good day – when the tide is out and there is an easterly wind – and you will be greeted with crystal clear, calm water.
The reef, situated about 20 metres from the shore, creates a lagoon, shallow with low waves making it an excellent place to swim or snorkel and perfect for introducing children to fishing.
The Yanchep Surf Life Saving Club patrol the beach during summer and there is a large car park across the road as well as a nearby café and toilet block with showers and change rooms.
