Willyun Beach (WA 349) is a slightly curving, southeast-facing beach, located 3 km to the southwest. The 3 km long beach spreads across the mouth of Willyun Creek in the east and continues west along the base of 50 m high vegetated bluffs, with a 100 m high headland bordering the eastern end and low rocks to the west. Waves average up to 1.5 m in the east decreasing to the west in lee of the western headland and 70 m high Haul Off Rock, located 2 km south of the beach. A 70 m wide rip dominated bar dominates the eastern half of the beach, with the bar becoming continuous, narrower and free of rips to the west. The central-eastern half of the beach is backed by an active sand sheet, which has blown 500 m inland and partly up the northern 70 m high valley sides. In addition the creek winds its way through the western side of the dunes to reach the centre of the beach. Cleared farmland occupies the backing valley and vehicle tracks reach the bluffs about the western section of the beach, with a narrow track also winding around the western headland and along the base of the bluffs to reach two fishing shacks at the southern tip of the beach.
