Exmouth Boat Harbour repair works

Several areas of the harbour were impacted following ex-tropical cyclone Narelle earlier in 2026. Repairs are underway, however, there may be some temporary disruptions. We apologise for the inconvenience and are taking all reasonable steps to minimise disruption to harbour users, nearby businesses and the community. 

Electrical repair works

DTMI apologies for the inconvenience relating to the ongoing interruption to services at EBH following cyclone Narelle. DTMI have now been advised it may be weeks before permanent reenergising can be completed.

Given this advice, DTMI will be proceeding with immediate supply of generators to both the B-Pens and Charter Pens until such time that mains power can be reliably restored. During this period, we encourage penholders to limit their consumption to essential use only. 

Again, DTMI wishes to apologise for the inconvenience and looks forward to mains power being restored shortly.

Exmouth Boat Harbour repairs

Coastal protection structures at Exmouth Boat Harbour impacted by Tropical Cyclone Narelle are being repaired to safeguard infrastructure and prepare for future cyclone seasons. 

The works support the ongoing operation of Exmouth Boat Harbour as an important regional asset for industry, tourism and the local community. 

The coastal protection structures will be reinstated to their original design. No changes will be made to the overall footprint, alignment, rock type or general layout.

Project status

The repair work commenced in July 2026.

Project details

Works will generally be undertaken 7 am to 7 pm, Monday to Saturday and 9 am to 5 pm on Sunday.

Works will commence on the northern side of the harbour before progressing to the southern side of the harbour. There will be truck movements to support deliveries, with up to 20 trucks per day, with no rock deliveries occurring on weekends. All works will occur within the existing structure footprint (see Figure 1). 

The harbour will remain open throughout the works, although some access and activities may be temporarily restricted. Please follow the signage and directions and avoid construction areas.

DTMI is working to minimise disruption to harbour users, nearby businesses and the community.
