Description
Torndirrup NP has spectacular coastal cliff views and a good suite of both bush and seabirds including Western Rosella, White-breasted Robin and Red-winged Fairywren.
A number of viewpoints and trails are available.
Cave Point Lighthouse (temporarily closed to vehicles) is great for pelagic bird sea-watching during storm events.
