Cheynes beach, Albany

Hi all,
I am planning to go South to Cheynes Beach near Albany for a fishing/camping trip with 7 mates late September.

We are mostly amateur fishermen and will be happy to catch only a couple of fish between us all, but i am concerned that the sandy ground will not be sturdy enough to hold the tent pegs.

Has anyone camped there before in a place where we can set up as close to the beach as possible, but on a grassed/partiallly grassed area?

We are looking for a more secluded spot where we can have a couple of beverages and not bother anybody else with our galavanting and noise.

Cold anyone provide directions to a good spot?

Thanks in advance

Lee
