Hamersley Inlet

Hamersley Inlet is a coastal inlet where the Hamersley River meets the Southern Ocean within Fitzgerald River National Park in the Shire of Ravensthorpe, Western Australia. Enclosed by coastal dunes, heathland and sandplain, it features a seasonally open sandbar, sandy beach and estuarine lagoon. Notable for its remote natural setting, biodiversity and wildflower displays, it forms part of the UNESCO Fitzgerald Biosphere Reserve and is accessed via Hamersley Drive.

Visitors can expect a remote, natural estuarine inlet with a sandy beach, dune system and shallow lagoon that is intermittently open to the ocean via a sandbar. The setting is within Fitzgerald River National Park heathland and coastal scrub. Facilities are limited to a basic campground area. Visitors can explore the beach, inlet foreshore, walking tracks and lookouts, and engage in camping, fishing, kayaking when water levels permit, photography and nature observation in a largely undeveloped environment.
