Eat at the Mackerel Islands, Western Australia

The Mackerel Islands operate as self-catering and you will need to bring your own food and drinks, excluding alcohol which can be purchased from the island general store due to our liquor licensing conditions.

There is a supermarket in Onslow you can shop at before your island stay. If you're flying into Onslow, you can pre-order from the supermarket and pick up on your arrival, or our staff at the Onslow Beach Resort can assist with the collection of your supplies. For assistance with this, please contact our reservations team.

The island general store stocks a good range of wine, beer, cider, pre-mixes, spirits, soft drinks and water. We also have an online store you can pre-purchase from 14 days or more ahead of your arrival date.

On Tuesday and Saturday evenings, we host a Dinner Under The Stars, one of our most popular events. Bookings are essential, find out more below.
