It would be hard to find a beach more perfect for families with little kids!Meelup is one beach in a string of gorgeous tranquil beaches to the north-west of Dunsborough on the sheltered Geographe Bay coastline on the way out to Cape Naturaliste.During school holidays and weekends when the weather’s fine the beach and park can get pretty crowded. It’s not a beach you’ll have all to yourself on a hot summer’s day but the fun and casual family atmosphere at Meelup on a crowded day is really quite enjoyable.
