Circumnavigating Australia — Beaches on the Road to Perth

Beginning in North Fremantle and extending northward are a series of beautiful white sand beaches — Sand Tracks Beach, Coast Port Beach, Leighton Beach, Mosman Beach, an onward to today’s photo stop. Today we’re visiting Cottesloe Beach, in the Town of Cottesloe.

We were here on February 25. For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere that works out to late August climate-wise. Thus, you can see that the beach had many visitors on this late summer day:

Our stop here was relatively brief on our excursion to Kings Park overlooking Perth, which is what I’ll be showing you on Wednesday. But for now it’s a day at the beach with a little sunbathing and scenery:

The water here is quite spectacular, with deep rich blues framed by white sand:

And another from the footpath leading from the parking lot down to the beach:

We’ll take one last look at Cottesloe Beach with this panoramic view:
