Gairdner River 

The Gairdner River winds its way to the Gordon Inlet, where the Southern Ocean and Trigelow beach lie just behind a sandbar.

In some years the river meets the ocean which can look especially beautiful.

It's a  peaceful waterway, with lots of bird life like pelicans and other waterbirds as well as sea eagles or parrots.

It takes about 4  1/2 hours return by canoe or kayak right to the Inlet, shorter trips with red stone gorges can be done as well.

There is one kayak (2persons) for hire at the nearby boat access, which is only 1  1/2 km from the Quaalup Homestead Wilderness Retreat.

As an idea: You could share with friends, one group kayaking down to the Inlet, the others can drive there  and kayak back up the river. There is no strong current either way.
