Eagle Bay is a small settlement on the coast of the Cape Naturaliste peninsula, about 8 km from Dunsborough. What's made here grows on trees. In 1998 the first owner of Eagle Bay Olives planted more than 1,200 olive trees on Cape Naturaliste Road, and the grove is still family-owned and family-run.

Seven varieties grow here, each picked at the time that suits the oil in mind. The oils are tasted separately, and only then does the family decide whether to blend or bottle a variety alone. Fresh Fruity is a single variety, handpicked Leccino that the maker calls delicate and fruity. It comes in sizes from a 100 ml bottle to a 5-litre tin. Around the oil sits a farm pantry: Egyptian-style dukkah, apple balsamic and a tapenade made from the farm's own olives.

The farm shop is on Cape Naturaliste Road, and visitors' reviews on the maker's site mention sitting in the garden by the orchard and the donkeys in the paddock. Check hours before you go. From here it's a short run up to Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse, and our Dunsborough and Yallingup guide puts it all in order.
