Brighton Beach

Brighton Beach is the ideal Indian Ocean vacation destination to relax and meet the beautiful people of Perth who know Brighton beach, a locality of the Perth suburb of Scarborough and just south of Scarborough Beach, has the best white sand surf beach in Australia. From the many nearby fine hotels, backpacking, and apartment  accommodation at Brighton Beach, you can swim, surf, fish , sail, people-watch, skate, cycle, windsurf, kitesurfing, shop, dine, travel, study, go night clubbing, interact with the animals, get fit, hold a conference, explore, or because the beach is so long and vast, drop out, relax and sun bake in a peaceful dune hollow away from the crowd.  Brighton beach has it all in the one place. Beaches within walking distance: Trigg 1.6km north, its island with rock pools and South of Brighton Beach you can start walking pets to Floreat Beach.  There is plenty of car parking and public buses #400 and 408 run every 8 minutes in summer from just west of the Perth train station. Beach and water conditions are usually best in the morning. Sunny winter (May-Nov) days are usually calm and beautiful. If you're not into wind or kite surfing you'll be thrilled by the speed and stunts of Perth's marine windsurfing and kite surfing centre at Brighton Beach in the afternoons when the sea breeze gets blowing in summer.

Snake Pit rock'n roll revisited beach culture One of several playgrounds just behind the beach dunes.  Free gas barbecues, facilities and services are only a few metres away.  At night rabbits hop out of these dunes to feed on the lush lawn.  Feb'00 I sighted two foxes by the bbq near the Brighton Beach kiosk .  Bob tail goannas frequent dune paths.  Fishing from the beach is excellent as is wave shape when winter storms drive up sand banks.  An old 1930's map shows a planned jetty at Brighton Beach (just south of the Scarborough beach drain) but development takes time to happen here.
