For teens and surfers, Scarborough Beach is a firm favourite. The regular swell, impressive surf breaks and long stretch of white sand attract swimmers, surfers and body-boarders. Scarborough Beach is also popular for kite surfing and windsurfing, especially when the afternoon sea breeze is in.
At night, Scarborough's foreshore comes alive. There are many restaurants and cafes to choose from, or you can pack a picnic and enjoy the large grassed areas, public barbecues and gazebos.
Brand new to the Scarborough Beach landscape is the Scarborough Beach Pool, a geo-thermally heated open-air public pool and world-class recreation facility. It’s your go-to fitness centre and your new local eatery - the perfect place to visit all year round.
Scarborough Beach also features an outdoor amphitheatre which in summer hosts all kinds of events including beach cricket.
There’s plenty of accommodation along this stretch of coast, making Scarborough Beach an ideal place for a summer holiday.
Surf Life Savers are regularly on patrol at Scarborough Beach ensuring the safety of the public.
Scarborough Beach is about a 20-minute drive northwest of Perth and regular buses run from the city.
