Harvey Dam

Great place to visit with a playground, picnic area, gardens, walk trails around the bottom of the wall, or you can walk along the top as well. Even has an amphitheatre.Very pretty place

Harvey Dam is a great day trip. The Amphitheatre section in front of the dam wall boasts beautifully manicured gardens, enclosed playground, BBQ facilities, lawn sections, gazebos with tables and chairs, a public toilet, and cemented paths and bridges, all suitable for prams and wheelchairs. There is adequate shade for summer picnics and walk trails including stairs and paths to the dam wall.You can drive up close to overlook the dam itself if you are unable to hike. A fun day out for families of all ages. If you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle there are a few gravel tracks into the bushland and areas surrounding the reservoir where you can fish for trout and other species in the season. (With a recreational fresh water fish licence)Spring is a great wildflower time with many blooming in the bushland surrounding the over 500 hectares of dam footprint meandering through gullies and tributaries into the main catchment. Within an hours drive from Bunbury CBD, its definitely a trip to share with family and friends.

Great visitor facilities with very clean and well kept toilets. The big surprise was the fantastic amphitheatre and timber stage. So unexpected there. Bouquets to the Harvey Shire and Watercorp.

I would visit this location every weekend and any other day to relax of I live very close by. I've visited many dams around WA, this is by far one of the best. Serene environment, very neat and tidy, peaceful, well managed with lot of facilities to accommodate different activities. Bbq, toilet, picnic seats, walking tracks, covered kid's playground, amphitheater, plenty parking lots, dam look out. Surely a place to visit.

Beautiful place for a outing and picnic. Water level is a bit low though

A more recent Dam construction. Beautiful garden and picnic area at foot of dam.

Good for a stop off on your travels. You can choose to climb the steps or drive to the top to take in the views. Theres a great little park at the bottom with a cool little amphitheatre and play ground and also a wetland walk. An impressive dam with great views. Highly recommended if you are at or going through Harvey.

Very relaxing surrounds few fish but not happy that water Corp is blocking alot of acsess to good fishing spots considering its only an irrigation dam . And they have also banned camping . No wonder kids sit at home playing video games . Not allowed to enjoy camping with there families. Very sad.
