Karratha Water Tank Art - Western Australia

The first Karratha Water Tank was painted by Chris Nixon in June 2021. You can find both tanks on Water Tank Hill.

Overlooking Karratha’s CBD, the Water Tanks are highly visible from the surrounding region, including along Dampier Highway, from the city centre, and from the air approaching Karratha’s airport. The Water Tanks are a well-recognised icon for the City, recently enhanced by the addition of amenities in the form of a lookout beside the Tanks, providing an excellent vantage point to view the City, the Burrup Peninsula and Nickol Bay. 

The Water Tanks and adjacent lookout also mark the entry to the Yaburara Heritage Trail - a popular and culturally significant walk through the Karratha hills featuring a number of Aboriginal sites.

Fully Fenced and can be difficult to photograph.
