Snag Island is a small island (or large rock) which sits just off the beach opposite the township. Leeman was formally named Snag Island until it was renamed.

During the summer months, the winds are strong and this provides perfect conditions for keen windsurfers. Each year there is the ‘Screaming Leeman’ windsurfing tournament.

Fishing is probably the biggest industry and pastime in Leeman. Primarily Cray-fishing (rock lobster) tops the list but for the amateur, bald chin groper and dhufish are plentiful. In fact Leeman gives itself the title of ‘Home of the Western Australia’s Dhufish’. There is one jetty at Leeman. There are two boat ramps both with gravel ramps.

Leeman’s white sandy beaches are safe for swimming, sailboarding and surfing. An offshore reef which was constructed in 1982, provides protection to the beach area. There are also big sand dunes which help give protection from the elements.

On Thomas St there is a track and lookout. It is a little bit of a climb with no hand railing most of the way. There is a sign which says ‘Tee Tree Lookout, our fishermen used this tree to navigate home 1957 – 2000’. I suspect they either mean ‘Ti Tree’ or 'Tea Tree'.
