Cottesloe

With tranquil waters framed by Norfolk pines and a pastel pavilion right on the beach, Cottesloe feels like a vintage coastal postcard come to life. The consistent swell is favoured by locals for surfing, and a cheeky little reef awaits for some snorkelling fun. The shaded grassy area edging the sand is even set up in tiers to ensure maximal sunset viewing. What’s even better than watching the sunset below the Indian Ocean? Doing so at one of Australia’s top spots for a Sunday session. Cottesloe Beach Hotel and Ocean Beach Hotel are renowned for their refreshing drinks and even better atmosphere to close out the week.
