Perth Kiteboarding Travel Tips

  • Kiteboarders take advantage of the southwesterly "Fremantle Doctor" afternoon winds in the summer that can reach up to 20 knots. They blow along the southern half of Australia's west coast.
  • At Shoalwater in Safety Bay, about a half-hour from downtown Perth, there's a great kiteboarding school called West Oz Kiteboarding.
  • Popular kiteboarding spots near Perth include Melville Beach, with a large protected shallow bay and long narrow beach; Safety Bay, with a gently sloping sand spit; and Cottesloe, with a shallow reef.

Beach Overview: Perth, Australia

Said to be one of the remotest cities in the world and closer to Singapore than to Sydney, Western Australia's Perth is both urbane and mellow. With a population of 1.5 million (over three-quarters of Western Australia's inhabitants) and built on mineral wealth, the city enjoys a perfect setting along the Swan River and Indian Ocean. Emphasis is on the outdoors in this area, with a coastline of excellent beaches in an almost continuous line from Cottesloe in the south to Quinns Rocks in the north, including a popular section called the Sunset Coast. The temperate year-round Mediterranean climate means plenty of beach days, and Perth is said to enjoy more hours of sunshine than any other major Australian city. Read More
