Preston Beach
“Bush meets beach – drive on and cast a line.”
Overview
Preston Beach is a coastal sanctuary where bushland meets ocean. It developed after enthusiastic fishers formed a syndicate in the 1950s, and the town was later taken over by the shire. A causeway across Lake Preston opened in 1956, improving access.
History & lifestyle
Today you can drive onto the beach, making it a favourite for four‑wheel‑drivers, fishers and families. Yalgorup National Park surrounds the area, with salt lakes and thrombolites. Local amenities include a general store, café and resort with pool and tennis courts. Trails and lakes invite bird‑watching and long walks.
