Jurien Bay Attractions
|
Jurien Bay, is 22kms north of Cervantes along the Indian Ocean
Road. Jurien Bay has a well protected bay
( the largest in the Central West Coast) and offers quality fishing for both amateurs and professionals. Cray
fishing is a major industry and earns the town millions of dollars yearly with
the season running from November to June.
Jurien Bay Marine Park extends south from Green Head to the Southern
boundary of Nambung National Park.
A small section of this marine park has been allocated for sanctuary zones,
however a full range of marine activities such as fishing, swimming and diving
are allowed in the majority of the marine park area.
Jurien Bay Sea Lions:The Australian sea lion, which is endemic to Australia and specially protected
under the Wildlife Conservation Act 1950, breeds on Buller and North Fisherman
islands and uses other islands in the Jurien Bay region as ‘haul-out’ sites.
Jurien is fast earning a
reputation as a growing town that offers safe swimming beaches , a modern marina
for both professional and amateur fishermen. Bush walking and beachcombing are
also popular pastimes.
Windsurfing has become increasingly popular. So much so that the locals have taken advantage of
the location to hone their skills for the annual Slalom Windsurfing Carnival held in Cervantes.
The usual wind is a South Westerly, which is cross wind, that sometimes can be a
little flukey off the main beach. The bay is however flanked to the south by a
sailable beach, that gets the cross wind nicely.
There are reefs offshore that limit the swell that comes in to the area. This
fact means that the area is really a flat water sailing spot. There are several
Islands off shore (before the reef) and it can be quite fun blasting out to them
across the flat bay.
Australia's coral coast is an exciting, happening region
and accommodation in Jurien Bay has never been so good !
