Help Shape What Comes Next
We are hosting a Community Collaboration Drop-in Session to discuss two separate projects relating to the Dalyellup Foreshore and coastal area.
Our coast is part of everyday life in Dalyellup - a place to walk, swim, gather, relax and connect. Like much of Western Australia, the Shire of Capel coastline is impacted by erosion (a loss of beach sand, dunes and vegetation), and areas may also be impacted by inundation (flood from sea water).
To plan for these changes responsibly, the Shire of Capel is bringing together one coordinated effort, comprised of two inter-related projects, with two key outcomes, guided by long‑term coastal science and shaped by the community. The long‑term coastal risks have been studied through the Coastal Hazard Risk Management and Adaptation Plan (CHRMAP). The CHRMAP helps us understand what may happen to the coastline over time and makes some recommendations
Now, we are taking the next step, and we would like to hear from you, to help shape what comes next.
Whether you visit often or from time-to-time, your perspective matters.
The CHRMAP addresses the next 100-years, while these two projects focus on the shorter term and respond to the needs of our community and the foreshore today. That’s where you come in.
How these projects fit together
Two projects. One shared direction. Although the projects have different purposes, they work together:
- The Foreshore Management Plan guides how the coastal area including beach and foreshore is managed and cared for over the next 10-15 years.
-
The South Dalyellup Redevelopment Project focuses on place-based design and accessibility for the area directly around the Surf Life Saving Club. This project explores how the area around the Surf Life Saving Club could be redesigned to improve safety, accessibility and amenity.
What we are asking
The Shire of Capel is inviting community, to help shape these two projects for the Dalyellup coastal area, which are happening right now. We are asking that you engage with us on this project by dropping in to a collaborative session or by using the tools on this page.
This is an opportunity to share:
- What you enjoy most about the Dalyellup foreshore
- How you use the area
- What you would like to see into the future
- Any concerns or questions you may have
Your input will help guide how this important area is managed and how it can adapt over time. This area is important to many different communities, so we need input and collaboration from everyone to develop strategies and solutions which are suitable and sustainable.
Ways to get involved
Join the conversation on the following:
- Online: Drop a pin on the map to show us how you use the foreshore, comment in the forum or simply sign up to stay up-to-date and follow the project as it progresses.
- In person: Drop-in for a chat at the community drop-in sessions.
SESSION ONE: Combined session for both projects | Wednesday 15 April 2026 5-7pm at Dalyellup Community Centre REGISTER HERE
SESSION TWO: Dalyellup South Foreshore Redevelopment Project Drop-in | THURSDAY 16 April 2026 anytime between 10am and 12pm (lLocation TBC) - Survey: Complete the community survey on this page (COMING SOON)
- Social media: Follow us on the Shire of Capel’s social media channels so you can see the progress and stay involved.
There is also a separate project relating to the creation of a Foreshore Management Plan for the Peppermint Grove Beach and foreshore area which can be found here.
Help shape your coast today and into the future.
