G'Day from WA (Wester Australia) or at least G'Day from Perth. Perth is on the the west coast of Australia and is the most remote city in the world and that makes it the best city in the world. the isolation of Perth and Western Australia alows you to see some amazing sites and have them all to yourself. if you are looking to go out in Perth you do not have to look to far. Personaly growing up on the beach at Cottesloe means that I am all about the water and doing things by the water.
The best places to go swimming around perth are:
City Beach This is normally a very safe beach, especially on calm days. The shore break can be dangerous for small children and inexperienced swimmers.
Cottesloe Beach Considered a very safe swimming beach, with a small surf break near the pylon. The biggest danger is the rocks when strong onshore winds make the water choppy and a strong rip can develop along the northern side of the groyne. Floreat Beach This is normally a very safe swimming beach. A small shore break can develop. North Cottesloe Beach A reasonably safe swimming beach. The reefs in the area can be dangerous for swimmers when the surf is choppy and strong undertows can develop between reefs. Scarborough Beach Popular for its beach-side cafes and home to the magnificent Rendezvous Observation City resort. Scarborough features a very good surfing beach but is not recommended for children and inexperienced swimmers when the surf is rough. Permanent rips exist to the southern end of the beach near Brighton Road and in the centre of the beach opposite Scarborough Beach Road. Other rips can develop suddenly during strong onshore winds and large swells. Sunbathing and paddling is consequently popular!
Sorrento Beach Most of the time, this is a very safe family swimming beach. A small shore break can develop during onshore winds. Swanbourne Beach A reasonably safe swimming beach with the biggest danger being from the short break which can develop with strong onshore winds. Popular with nudists. Trigg Island Beach An excellent surf beach. It can be dangerous for inexperienced swimmers and children. The biggest danger is the rocks near the "Bluehole" where a permanent rip exists along the southern edge of the rocks - stay right away from this area. Rips can develop at a moment's notice during strong onshore winds.
Trigg Island through to Sorrento The small bays in this area should be safe for swimming, provided inexperienced swimmers and children do not venture past the reef line.
For going out and drinking you have got to go to:
