    South beach is always calm and the water is often crystal clear over the summer months. It’s perfect for a quick dip or an entire day out with friends and family. On a nice day you can see all the way out to Rottnest Island. The north side of the beach past the break wall is an off-leash dog friendly zone and I find it a joy to interact and meet all the happy pups out and about

    South Beach is one of the popular beaches for the locals. The shallow water is good for the family to have water spots and fun. Enjoy! (2023-12)

    Really nice beach with a grass front in case you get cold or the wind picks up. Some trees offer shade and the beach next door allows dogs as well. There is a portable Sauna place which is a nice experience after a cold ocean dip! The sand is not as white and is does get quite windy in the afternoon.

    Very clean and chilled beach , the water is generally very flat and calm with a great grass embankment with multiple trees and shady spots to relax under

    Favourite beach around Perth, plenty of thinks to do with a beautiful park around the beach. Facilities around the corner, coffee shop and some other shops. The closest super market is 15 minutes walking more less and then if you want to go back to the train station you have 30 minutes walking. However you have a free bus and other bus going around just in case.

    Lovely beach! We enjoyed our breakfast here and had a really good time. There is a regular beach with sand and also grassy areas with lots of trees for shade. Public showers and toilets are just around the corner.

    Fantastic beach. The water is so beautifully clear and when picking the right time to come isn’t too busy. The grass and trees out front of the beach is great for picnics and a family day out.

    Our go to beach for a swim and lazy time, can get a bit of sea weed there at times, but is generally clean and family friendly. A couple of cafes near by (we personally go the Dolce and Selato on the way in or home) and BBQ facilities on the grass area

    South Beach would be one of the best beaches I've seen in Perth very relaxing flying around the grass with your mates. People playing with their pets on the beach seems like a family place to go.

    Fremantle South Beach has the most beautiful white sand and clear water. You can enjoy swimming, surfing, sunbathing, beach volleyball, and there are good nearby cafes and restaurants. The beach is family-friendly.

    One of my favourite beaches in Perth/Fremantle area hands down. It’s quiet And secluded. It’s also calm beach so it’s fantastic beach to take kids to.

    Dog friendly, practically no surf. If the water is very still though you have to watch out for jelly fish. There's a cafe and dog pop bags are provided.

    Fun in the sun. The kids love it. Right at the far end of Fremantle, it's a great spot. This was my beach growing up and we still visit although we live near the hills. The cafe on the grassed area is good. The grassed area on the northern part of beach allows you ocean view whereas the South end the grass and beach are separated by the sand hill. There is a pontoon which you can see in the picture.

    Great beach but expect lots of wind and no shade from the sun

  • 5/5 Ian P. 2 months ago on Google • 29 reviews New
    Lovely spot at sunset and nice for an early morning swim as well, though there are more impressive beaches around Perth. Nice and easy If you are staying at Freo!

    Friendly staff, beautiful location and delicious nachos

  • 5/5 Lucia G. 1 year ago on Google
    Such an amazing venue with the loveliest staff. The food is amazing...but I miss the pizza option. I'd almost deduct a star because you deducted the pizza. PS Kyle, Rob and Sammy are fantastic ❤️

    I love this beach not only because this is the first beach I visited In Australia (alone! ) but also for it’s aesthetic beauty. Great place for sunset.

  • 4/5 Fred S. 3 years ago on Google

    Sand, water, sun, what more could someone ask for? Honestly I could have asked for an ice-cream it was super hot. Since there was no free ice-cream I'll only be giving 4 stars

  • 5/5 Grace E. 9 months ago on Google
    Such a nice beach with nice big grass area and really sweet even if the water is cold and it's the end of Autumn. So cool to catch the cat bus back to the station if you need to and there's a nice cafe and food shops/cafe strip nearby and sometimes I've seen a drum circle gather at night across from there where there are trees and more grass where the car park is. Really like it there its way different to cottosloe which is still good but yeah been a few times here now and found it quite peaceful gets pretty busy in the summer

  • 4/5 Alessandro B. 3 years ago on Google
    Live the vibe and the nice shaded area behind the beach. Can be very busy thou

    South beach is a gift from God herself..... Love the diversity and options are endless for sitting spots. Water isn't too salty which is great for my eyes. Love the grass, love the sand. And LOVE the pontoon. One improvement would be to give names to each section of the beach - it makes meeting up with friends a whole lot easier. Another suggestion, is for another shower around the sauna area perhaps? Would be good for those with walking troubles. Also - what's happening with the toilet block? Maybe, another toilet up by the northern side...?

    Back in the fifties at South Beach . Side show alley was brimming with life at Christmas time it was a lovely atmosphere . Early in the morning we would walk to the beach and walk along the jetty or have a swim . Go home for lunch and back down again . Sammy the Seal was a regular visitor :) These days I go for nostalgia trips ,walk along the beautiful beach with its white sand,I love listening to the waves as they rush up to shore ,memories of our early mornings of yesteryear, Gods music . Watching the Seagulls ,still every where :) The people with their dogs , I dont think there were two the same , everyone is friendly along with the dogs . The fish and chips are a treat ,the service is great :) The photo of my brother and myself ,was taken by the resident photographer. The other photo us of our cousins with us at Christmas time . Nice to see the old Pine trees still standing :) Ailsa

    Great place to relax on the grass, and people watch. Even when it's windy the trees and vegetation offer some protection from strong winds.

  • 5/5 Coral O. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the best beaches to watch the sunset! Not so windy and peaceful

  • 5/5 Cleberth D. N. 4 years ago on Google
    Beach with very clear water is great for bringing children, as there are no big waves. Bring a tent or tent to avoid exposing yourself to the sun for too long.
