From Disabled World Accessible Fishing Locations Perth Western Australia By Disabled World
Accessible fishing locations around Perth Western Australia that provide universal access for people with disabilities. Any time is good for fishing in WA but the warmer months, from November to March, are particularly rewarding. Not only is the weather ideal for early morning and twilight expeditions, but the Swan River becomes estuarine and many of the local marine species move into its waters to feed. River species you are likely to catch include Bream, Flounder, Herring, Skipjack, Cobbler, Flathead, and Tailor. Crabs and prawns...for which you don¹t need a licence...are also abundant in summer months. Accessible fishing locations: Banks Reserve, Joel Terrace, East Perth Bicton Baths Jetty, Brauton Street, Bicton Heirisson Island, Causeway Bridge, Perth HP Hinds Park reserve, Milne Street, Bayswater Jeff Joseph Reserve, Ardross Street, Applecross Keanes Point Reserve, Hobbs Place, Peppermint Grove Nedlands Jetty, Broadway, Nedlands Old Mandurah Bridge, Apex Park, Mandurah Point Walter Jetty, Honour Road, Bicton Port Bouvard Marina, Rees Place, Mandurah Rockingham Jetty, Val Street, Rockingham Wells Park Jetty, Kwinana Beach Road, Kwinana Woodman's Point Jetty Recreation Area, Nyyerbup Circle Coogee Fishing WA have a nice list of accessible fishing locations near Perth including what types of fish you can catch. They also provide information for everyone in the community that enjoys fishing. Here is an example listing: Palm Beach Jetty at The Esplanade, opposite the intersection with Fisher Street has easy access (good parking), but the right-hand extension is not accessible due to the steps leading down.
