Scarborough

Known as one of WA’s favourite coastal playgrounds, Scarborough’s appeal revolves around its sandy stretch of beaches and foreshore. Since its foreshore revitalisation in 2018, the addition of a beach pool, skate parks, sporting equipment, amphitheatre and Sunset Hill maintains this popular beach’s year-round appeal.

Situated in the City of Stirling, Scarborough houses over 15,000 residents across five square kilometres. Considering its prime waterside location, the median house price of $870,000 is reasonable for the residents, mainly young couples, who maintain their bikini-clad and sun-drenched glow with a range of local health and beauty facilities.

Scarborough’s entertainment precinct caters well to its youthful population and visitors from all over the metropolitan area through its hotels, cafes, bars, Luna Maxi Mart shopping centre and Sunset Markets. Home to Brighton Beach and Scarborough Beach, this beachside enclave is a magnet for surfing, bodyboarding, kite surfing, windsurfing and swimming.
