Nanarup beach
Edit SpotAbout
A lot like Muttonbird island on the other side of Albany. A fun, and at times pretty hollow beach break
Atmosphere:
Deserts is pretty consistent as far as banks go and the point goes off when the conditions are right. All in all its worth the 30 minute drive out of Albany
Additional Info:
Park at the river mouth if you have a 2WD and either walk to your right to the point or left up the beach for about 10 minutes to "deserts". If you have a 4X4 you can drive
