James Street Jetty Beach is located in the centre of town by the Esperance foreshore and Whale Tail sculpture. The beach is perfect for swimming as it's protected by a shark proof barrier.

There is also a floating pontoon and a jetty to walk along (noting you can't walk on the jetty when the helicopter is based at the end of it).

This beach is ideal for families. Not only for the protected swimming area and calm bay, but there is a playground, toilet and shower facilities and a long stretch of green grass along the foreshore.

The beach faces to the east, so it's susceptible to the southeasterlies and easterlies in the summer months. The best time to visit is when these winds are not blowing, which is typically in the mornings.

Dogs are permitted on leash in this area.
