What fish can you catch at Singleton Beach?

Mulloway and tailor are the main targets — mulloway after dark from about October to April, tailor in the gutters through summer. Herring, sand whiting and autumn Australian salmon round out the bread-and-butter fishing off the sand. It's a straightforward surf beach rather than a reef or estuary spot, so the catch is beach species rather than anything exotic.

When is the best time to fish Singleton Beach?

Dawn and dusk on a moving tide are the prime windows for tailor, and after dark is when mulloway feed. The incoming tide fishes best across all species. Scout the beach at low tide first to find the gutters, then time your session around the light and the tide change.

Can you fish for mulloway at Singleton Beach?

Yes — Singleton has a genuine land-based mulloway shot, best from October into April at night. Fish the deepest gutter you can find with fresh whole squid or live mullet on a heavy running-sinker rig, and be patient, because jewfish don't rush the bait. The new and full moon phases are the most consistent.

Is there parking and toilets at Singleton Beach?

Yes. The Singleton Foreshore reserve off Foreshore Drive has a sealed car park, accessible toilets, barbecues, picnic shelters and an inclusive playground. A sealed pathway with a handrail and beach-access matting make it one of the more accessible surf beaches on the southern metro coast.

Can you drive on Singleton Beach?

No — Singleton is a walk-on suburban beach with no vehicle access. Park at the Singleton Foreshore car park off Foreshore Drive and walk onto the sand. For 4WD beach fishing you would need to head further south toward the Mandurah stretch.
