Kalbarri Pelican Feeding

Kalbarri Pelican Feeding is a daily volunteer-run wildlife attraction on the Murchison River foreshore in Kalbarri, Shire of Northampton, Western Australia. Held each morning near the town centre, volunteers feed resident Australian pelicans while providing educational commentary. Established as an informal local tradition and now a managed visitor experience, it is notable for close, free viewing of wild pelicans in a scenic river-mouth setting and is one of Kalbarri's most popular family attractions.

Visitors gather on the sandy foreshore of the Murchison River near the Kalbarri town centre for a short, volunteer-led feeding session. Australian pelicans wade ashore and are fed fish one by one while volunteers provide commentary on pelican biology and behaviour. The setting is an open, flat river beach with parkland, seating and views across the river mouth. Visitors can watch, photograph and listen from a designated viewing area at close range.
