Dawesville is a suburb of Mandurah, located between the Harvey Estuary and the Indian Ocean.
Dawsville is also home to the largest inland waterway in Western Australia - the Harvey Estuary and the Peel Inlet which combine to produce an array of fishing and crabbing options in the summer months. However, due to the crab population declining over the past half-decade, crabbing is now banned in the estuary during September and October.
Attractions outside crabbing and fishing include canoeing, jet-ski and skiing. The beach, which is only 500 metres over the highway is another attraction. Pyramids Beach, the most popular beach in Dawesville, is currently undergoing development to turn it into a future surf spot.
