About Cottesloe Beach

Affectionately known as 'Cott', the Cottesloe Beach is a favourite among Perth's 19 sensational white sand beaches. Its smooth terraced lawns and pristine sands are a perfect setting to laze or bask on the beach or for a family day out. It is as beautiful as that out of a picture postcard. For more than 100 years now, this has been one of the favourite seaside destinations for locals and tourists alike. Refresh and rejuvenate by watching the sunset over the Indian ocean or enjoying a refreshing drink or a relaxed dinner. The annual Sculpture By the Sea outdoor exhibition held in March every year gives the Cottesloe beach the status of an outdoor art gallery.
