The Featured Wood Gallery and Museum in Australind is a labour of love for owner John Ablett, whose museum is the result of 25 years spent collecting antiques and heritage items. From Noongar heritage to the old Bunbury Jetty, the museum features a range of displays bound to capture the attention of people with an interest in history. |

With the Brunswick and Collie Rivers to the east and south, and the Leschenault Estuary to the west — Australind is an aquatic paradise where you can enjoy boating, fishing and windsurfing. The estuary has a large population of blue manna crabs (when in season) and the waters around Australind are abundant with fish such as silver bream and whiting.
The Leschenault Peninsula Conservation Reserve at the northern end of Australind is a haven for native flora and fauna. Coastal heath, tuart and peppermint woodland, saltmarsh and mangroves provide a range of habitats making it an ideal location for bird watching.
Kangaroos often gather together along Cathedral Avenue and flocks of black swans are frequently seen on the estuary waters. There are also a number of picturesque walk trails in the surrounding area. |  |
