Tourist Guide

A beach with a covered seating area, a stone wall, and a clear blue sky.
A beach with palm trees, a white gazebo, and a sign that reads "SOUTH BEACH".
A coastal park with a grassy hill, a skate park, and modern buildings in the background.
A cyclist on a bike path near a beach with a clear sky.
A climbing wall with a unique geometric design, surrounded by trees and a clear blue sky.
Sun, surf and sunsets – you’ve made it to Scarborough. This waterfront playground is one of Perth’s most popular beachside ’burbs.

Forget hustling for a patch of sandy real estate: Scarborough has space in spades. Swim or surf Scarborough’s impossibly blue waters or join the locals for a round of beach volleyball. Pine-peppered foreshores and picnic shelters make Scarborough a first choice for barbeques on balmy days.
