The Tanker Jetty is conveniently located on the town foreshore in the heart of Esperance. Try your hand at throwing a line in for a spot of fishing, wander the 670 metre length of the jetty, or just sit for a while and check out the local marine life which is in abundance beneath the jetty. New Zealand fur seals and Australian sea lions often visit the jetty. One such regular visitor is the resident sea lion who the locals have affectionately named 'Sammy'. Snorkel or dive the artificial reef at the end of the jetty to experience a close encounter with the diverse sea life. The picturesque old timber jetty is an Esperance icon, which has significant heritage value. It is a beautiful spot where you could pass the entire day enjoying a relaxing picnic lunch, taking a meander along the esplanade, finishing off with a nice refreshing swim. It is in easy walking distance to the town centre. Esperance is a beautiful coastal town, which is a one and a half hour flight, or a eight hour drive south of Perth.
