With a lovely sunny environment, especially from the months of April to September, Onslow is perfect to for fishing, diving and snorkelling. There is also the rich history from pearl lugging to salt production and the natural elements of the beaches, sunrises and sunsets that make it a wonderful place to explore.

Things to do:

• Staircase to the Moon: From March to October, Onslow is one of the few places on earth where you can witness the natural phenomenon known as the Staircase to the Moon.  If you time your visit to coincide with a full moon, make your way to the  best vantage point and view the marvel in all of its beauty. There have been some amazing photography incorporating the scene.
• The old Onslow Ruins: These relic buildings including the old gaol, give insight into the town before the townsite was moved.  The Good Shed Museum is heritage listed and houses Onslow’s charming historical pieces.

• Sunrise: With few places in Western Australia that offer a sunrise and sunset viewing, Onslow offers the exclusive sight of watching both sunrise and sunset. Ask the visitors centre for more information about where to best see both.
• Walking and Heritage Trails: From the Heritage Trail to the Ian Blair Memorial Walkway, a really popular and natural walkway from Beadon Point Lookout to Sunset Beach. There are many attractions such as the termite Mound Viewing Area where you can look at these creative insect homes and wonder at how much work these busy little creatures must be to make such huge nests.

• Beach activities: There are so many coastal areas suitable for fishing, snorkelling and diving. From Sunrise and Sunset Beach to Four Mile Creek, Ashburton River and Mackerel Islands.  All with their own individual experiences to offer. Ask at the visitors centre for more information on which location will best suit you….if not all of them!
