Sunset Coast Beaches: Unspoilt and Uncrowded

WA has some of the most beautiful, safest, swimming, surfing and fishing beaches in the world. Many of them have BBQ areas, grassy areas with shade huts, jettys and plenty of cafes and fish n chips shops. Swim, snorkel, dive, sunbathe, surf & paddle at the most popular beaches and strut or relax at the hidden gems away from the crowds, children and souvenir shops.
You can get to the accessible city beaches by bus or train, all within 20-30 from the CBD. Further afar, it’s easier to drive to the beaches. With weekday and weekend rental specials you can drive to check out several of the beaches (except Rottnest where no vehicles are allowed).
