Access is from Burma Rd about 2km east of the Olympic Hwy junction. There is no access to this small lake in farmland but all the birds can be seen from the road, the roads are also worth trawling, such as Table Top Ck a short stroll down Willurah Rd

No camping is advised here, it’s right by the freeway with no place to get off the roads.
