Busselton Beachfront
Busselton Beachfront - Located near Busselton’s town centre, the Busselton Beachfront hosts a variety of excellent amenities for visitors. There are excellent facilities to cater for the many thousands of visitors that visit the beachfront each year including netted swimming areas, shady lawns, restaurants and beach kiosks, public toilets, pathways and picnic seating.
The 140-year old Busselton Jetty is the longest timber pier in the Southern Hemisphere at around 1.8km in length. Fishermen enjoy casting out a line from the jetty and as a result often enjoy a meal of herring, crab, skippy or squid. The Busselton Jetty Interpretive Centre located on the shore end of the jetty provides an excellent insight into the Jetty’s rich history and the unique environment that exists beneath the Jetty.
The unique Busselton Jetty Underwater Observatory is located near the end of the jetty. Visitors descend eight metres below sea level to view the spectacular marine life that thrives in this unique habitat. More than 300 species of marine life can be viewed from the Underwater Observatory, including vibrant coral and schools of fish. Popular with scuba divers and snorkellers, the Busselton Jetty is regarded as Australia’s best artificial reef.
