Description:
If you head west from the city centre of Perth, the beach you're most likely to run into is City Beach, so it's popular with the locals. That said, there's enough gorgeous white sand here to share amongst a bunch of beachgoers and you'll often feel like you've got the beach to yourself. Perfect for swimming in summer and walking in winter, City Beach is accessible by bus or car.
