1. Visit one of Perth’s AMAZING oceanside bars
Perth locals know and love the beach, and there is no shortage of licenced venues for you to sample along our coastline. From Malaysian cuisine to spicy Italian, you can also enjoy a sumptuous meal for the whole family at the vast array of licenced restaurants in between.
Our favourite locale for a good meal is Sorrento, Hillarys. While it’s a further drive up the coastline, there are over 54 stores and more than 20 restaurants, serving everything from fine dining to burgers and fish n chips, plus the desserts are incredible! But if its sampling a variety of local and international wines and beers that are your thing, then Scarborough is the hippest hang out for the young and trendy. The Scarborough Beach Bar opens directly onto the Indian Ocean and serves local Margaret River Wines, locally brewed Western Australian beers and even bottles of French Moët & Chandon, for those special celebrations. |
There are over 10 bars dotted within walking distance of each other, along the Esplanade in Scarborough, Western Australia, so you can feel the sea breeze in your hair and check out the local music and ambience at several venues during your stay.
