Shelter Bay with no fuel?
Submitted by crisco on Mon, 2026-03-30 08:50
We are heading back to Shelter Bay for our annual trip this year, or perhaps not!
Has anyone had any experiences of travelling for fishing, especially to Steep or Dirk Hartog through Denham and what was the experience getting fuel?
Are they receptive to supplying for boats and jerries heading across to camp? It's a ishing town unlike any other in the state with a lot of tourism revenue from fishing groups...
Cheers

No problems taking fule by
No problems taking fule by boat from dehnam to shelter bay i used the unmanned fule station just out of town, $1.50 ish a liter. Taking fule to dirk hartog is different your not suppose to camp on shore unless booked, or at least let them know. Plenty of locals will just do a 2 day trip over stay on the boat in a protected bay. Don't need to much fule. Safer.
