About this place
Dolphin Cove was named for the nearby headland that is shaped like a dolphin.
On a calm day the white sandy beach and clear, azure blue water make this a delightful place to enjoy a swim and take in the stunning coastal scenery of Cape Arid National Park. There is also a lookout viewing point at Dolphin Cove.
