Yalgardup Falls, also known as Kevill Road Waterfall is just a five minute drive west of Margaret River.
This waterfall is not tall, but it is wide, and the thundering flow of water over the rocks makes it an exciting place to visit after the winter rains. At other times of the year, when the flow reduces to a gentle stream, you can rock-hop or walk right across the river.
Yalgardup Falls is located on Kevill Road, off Walcliffe Road. As this is not a well-known tourist spot there is no signpost, but the waterfall is visible from the road near the pull-over bay/ parking area.
Keep an eye out for kangaroos in this area! There are usually lots of them on or beside the road, especially in the early morning or late afternoon.

Visited on 1st April 2026.
There was no water flowing when we arrived, so it was more of a dry rock formation than a waterfall. That said, you can easily imagine how beautiful it would be after some decent rain — the shape of the rocks and the setting would make it a really nice little cascade.
It’s a quiet, peaceful spot, and still worth a quick stop if you’re nearby. Just keep in mind it’s very weather dependent — best to visit after rainfall if you want to see it at its best.

Cute spot for a short stop - spent 15 minutes walking around. We went early in the winter and after a rainfall so there was a bit of flow in the falls, but nothing crazy 😊

I visited this waterfall at the end of March after a few days of steady rain, expecting to see it in full flow. Unfortunately, I was quite surprised to find it completely dried out. Given the recent rainfall, I had assumed there would at least be a visible stream, but that wasn’t the case at all.
It makes me think this might be a seasonal waterfall that only truly comes to life during the winter months, when rainfall is more consistent and sustained. While the surrounding area was still pleasant and the landscape had its own charm, the lack of water was definitely a letdown.
If you’re planning a visit, it might be worth timing it for peak winter to experience the waterfall at its best.

This is one of our favourite places when we visit Margaret River now. There wasn't much water flowing when we went mid May, but it was peaceful and nobody else was there at all.
