Eagle Bay

After pulling off Cape Naturaliste Road, visitors to stunning Eagle Bay could be forgiven for thinking they’d arrive at an exclusive pocket of the Mediterranean usually reserved for the rich and famous. With a tiny population of just over 200, the owners of the multi-million architecturally designed homes nestled into the escarpment are some of the luckiest property owners in the world. The views of Eagle Bay are to die for in this secluded bay and it's hardly surprising that many celebrities visiting the southwest region choose Eagle Bay to base themselves.

Whale watching, world-class surfing, diving and snorkelling, including adventures of the HMAS Swan dive wreck and artificial reef, are just part of the appeal. Sheltered Eagle Bay is also ideal for swimming, snorkelling or relaxing on the beach too beautiful to be believed. The area is littered with walking trails, including the famous 135km Cape to Cape trek starting at the nearby Cape Naturaliste.

Sitting on the tip of Cape Naturaliste, the towns of Dunsborough, Yallingup and Busselton are a short drive away for amenities and shopping. Situated 253km south of Perth, and part of the Margaret River Wine Region, the residents and visitors to Eagle Bay are never far away from wineries, breweries, distilleries and outstanding cuisine.
