About Little Beach
Little Beach is a sheltered white-sand cove within Two Peoples Bay Nature Reserve, about 35 kilometres east of Albany in Western Australia's Great Southern region. Enclosed by granite headlands and fringed by clear turquoise water, it is regarded as one of the state's most scenic beaches. Located in a protected nature reserve, it offers calm swimming conditions, pristine natural surroundings and views across Two Peoples Bay toward Mount Gardner.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a small, sheltered horseshoe-shaped beach with fine white sand, clear turquoise water and granite boulders at each end. The beach is backed by coastal heath and low vegetation within the nature reserve, with a car park, picnic and barbecue area set back from the sand. The water is generally calm for swimming and snorkeling when conditions are settled, with views to Mount Gardner and offshore islands. There are no shops or cafes at the beach.
