Survey Point Barred Ck WA
Latitude-17.6619000 (17° 39′ 43″ S)
Longitude122.2018900 (122° 12′ 7″ E)

About 10km along Manari Rd north of Broome, a track leads west down to a roundabout, turn left at the roundabout and the site sits above the creek with good scrub behind and good mangroves below on the tidal creek. These mangroves are some of the most active I’ve seen as far as bird life goes. beware of no-see-ums, tiny biting insects around the mangroves

Camp rating 10, there are a few spots to camp above the creek, there are no facilities here.
