The city of Perth has a laid-back vibe that instantly makes any traveller to this state feel relaxed and welcomed. It has its own unique food culture, bohemian art scene and sophisticated nightlife that all vie for attention. Besides the friendly people and perfect combination of cosmopolitan city meets relaxed small town atmosphere; Perth also has some of the best open public spaces in Western Australia.
Of course, most travellers head out to the coastline to enjoy the beaches, surf and sunshine, but there are a few places in the city that can rival these heavenly beaches. Located a short stroll from several shopping centres and fashionable accommodation, like COMO The Treasury, Perth, a well-known boutique hotel in Perth; is the South Perth foreshore.
One of the largest public areas in the city, the South Perth Foreshore covers 62 hectares of land adjacent to the Swan River. The area is designed to be an area where anyone from the community can relax, engage with each other and connect with nature, which has become highly popular not just with locals, but travellers too. The area has become famous for its beautiful landscapes, chilled out ambiance and river-side location which offers great views of the city.
The South Perth Foreshore encompasses a few distinct areas such as several small playgrounds for children, a river-side promenade with cafes and restaurants along the banks, two separate public beaches, a park and landscaped gardens, and much more. Whether you want to chill out on the beach, have a picnic with friends or family, or ride a bicycle under the warm sunshine, the foreshore is a great place for everyone. In addition, there’s good public-transport so even on weekends when it may get crowded, you can easily move from one area to another without any fuss and enjoy what’s on offer.
