Two Peoples Bay Nature Reserve Western Australia

exploreparks.d...
Just 35km from Albany lies a scenic and important nature reserve. Two Peoples Bay and Little Beach are picture perfect spots for swimming, diving, canoeing and fishing. Their sweeping curves, sandy beaches, and clear waters feature in many award-winning photographs. Say cheese!
What you may not know is that this reserve is home to several endangered animals. The Gilbert’s potoroo, a small native marsupial, is critically endangered. This and the endangered noisy scrub-bird were actually thought to be extinct. A population of noisy scrub birds were found here in the 1960's and a small colony of Gilbert's potoroo was rediscovered here in 1994.
The purpose of the reserve is to protect the mature coastal vegetation of the area. Both of these rare animals need this type of habitat to survive. Three threatened species of cockatoo also use the reserve. That’s nice to know!
A visitor centre at Two Peoples Bay has lots of information about local history, and wildlife. You can also find out about important recovery programs for threatened species.
Discover the beauty and wildlife of Two Peoples Bay by taking a walk on one of the trails. Lookouts on the trail offer breathtaking views across the sheltered bay and leads to Little Beach.
You can also drive from the visitor centre to Little Beach. Those with four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicles can also access the Sinker Reef Track to Sinker Reef Beach. It has magnificent coastal views.
