Shelley Beach Lookout is amazing as you can see far across Torbay into the Great Southern Ocean as well as get a wonderful view of Shelley Beach itself.

Shelley Beach Lookout is also cool because it is from here where people FLY. You can also get a wonderful view of Torbay Head in the distance, the most Southern Point in Western Australia (photo above).

Two solid, large wooden platform ramps lead off into the air from the lookout. Purpose built for hang gliding and paragliding.
