There is a toilet block and a large picnic shelter for all campers to share. Leaning Marri is not suitable for large caravans or large camper trailers/camper vans.
See if you can spot the tree which gives Leaning Marri its name. Quite the character, its trunk has grown at a 30-degree angle before straightening out and heading for the sky.
No pets are allowed.
Campfires are usually permitted, in the provided fire ring at the large group camping area only, between April 15 and November 30 but fire restrictions may be imposed at any time and without notice.

Great fun but make sure you have the right equipment
The bare minimum equipment required is a compressor to pump up your tyres after the trip. You won’t make it up the first hill on road pressures. You should also have recovery tracks and a snatch strap. Once you have all of this you will have a ball. A beautiful beach, although windy when we were there and plenty of isolation.Even without a 4 wheel drive you can visit
These dunes are worth a visit. Like a white sand desert in the in the middle of the forest. If you have a big four wheel drive you can drive there but in a normal car park at the lake and walk the 1.2 km - its not hard walk.Amazing
The best way to see this if you are not a 4WDer is to go on a Pemberton Discovery Half Day Tour - Graeme and his tema provide an unforgettable experience
