Lancelin offers great beaches to walk, to relax and to enjoy the sun.

Lancelin also offers wind surfing, sandboarding, great fishing and diving.

Lancelin is a small fishing and tourist town just 110km north of Perth, Western Australia.

Lancelin is a relaxed coastal town, perfect for tourists who are interested in adrenaline sports or just plain relaxing, it's a lovely place to visit and one of my all time favorites.

The drive to Lancelin only takes me about 2 hours from the centre of Perth. Lancelin, Western Australia is attractively situated between a large, safe bay with 2 large rock islands and extensive sand dunes around the town. The town of Lancelin is a recognised venue worldwide for Windsurfing and Rock Lobster fishing. With a mediterranean climate, slightly warmer than Perth, Lancelin experiences much of the rainfall Perth receives. Warm in Summer and cool in Winter, the town experiences gusty afternoon sea breezes, providing the ideal setting for world-class windsurfing conditions.

The crystal clear, calm waters of this bay are absolutely beautiful and water activities certainly and deservedly dominate this town's leisure activities. Lancelin is the gateway to Australia's finest windsurfing and is noted on the International Windsurfing Circuit. The winds which roar through the shallow bays off the Indian Ocean offer ideal conditions for windsurfing and a day does not go by that the bay is not littered with speeding sailboards.

Nestled directly behind the township of Lancelin, the sand dunes are the largest in the state containing absolutely nothing but pure white sand and no vegetation. They are around 2 kilometres long and provide the perfect spot for sandboarding. They are a spectacular sight at sunrise or sunset Lancelin is very popular town for most 'Perthites' getting away from the suburbs for that ideal 1 day trip.

Fishing and Diving is is also very popular.

The waters around Lancelin are teeming with fish due to the large number of reef systems along the coastline. A world renowned dive trail also litters the ocean around Lancelin. Fourteen shipwrecks along the coastline enable some fantastic diving adventures. Many species of fish and seals call the area home and the fishing is great.

Not far from Lancelin is the Pinnicles a must see unique landscape. Undoubtably one of Western Australia's most unique and interesting attractions, these remarkable stone monuments are located only 4km from the beach. The stone rises out of the sandy desert like the remains of an ancient city. or great viewing, visit the area at sunrise or sunset Check out the photo below or-
