Pelican Point suburb profile
Pelican Point is a coastal suburb of Bunbury set beside the Leschenault Inlet, prized for its foreshore, waterways and abundant birdlife that give it a relaxed, seaside character. The neighbourhood is mostly low-density and residential, with detached homes and some newer, low-profile developments that often take advantage of water or green views, so the suburb appeals to families and retirees who want a quieter pace. Outdoor recreation is a constant feature, with walking routes, fishing and boating nearby, while Bunbury's shops, schools and services are close enough to be convenient without detracting from the calm coastal feel.
