D'entrecasteaux National Park is located on the South Coast between Black Point and Doggerup Creek and extends inland to the edge of the State Forest and is approximately 36,599 Hectares. The Park covers 60km of coastline, is 10km south of Northcliffe and 20km south west of Pemberton.

The Windy Harbour settlement is centrally located in the Park on the coast. The only sealed road into the park is via Northcliffe leading to Point dEntrecasteaux and the 100m high sea cliff edge lookout platforms. Five other tracks access the coast and all are strictly four wheel drive. The Park is honeycombed with numerous other tracks as well and should not be attempted without some local knowledge of the area.

The Park boasts sandy beaches, interspersed with rocky headlands and cliffs, semi mobile dunes, interdunal swamps, swampy flats, seasonally inundated, river systems, forest country. Coastal heath, peaty swamps, wetlands, Jarrah woodlands and dense forests cover the Park in rich vegetation. The Bibbulmun Track traverses parts of the Park from Pemberton, through Northcliffe to Walpole.

There is a camping ground at Windy Harbour and other limited camping areas in the Park. Locals and tourists camp on or near the beach and rivers at popular fishing spots. However, during the day there are many activities to keep you occupied in the Park. Go picnicking, walking, swimming and rock climbing.
