Nestled just a short drive from the heart of the historic pearling town, you'll find the charming Town Beach. Overlooking the breathtaking turquoise waters of Roebuck Bay, this spot is a favorite for families on vacation. The calm, aqua waters are not only perfect for a refreshing dip but also make for stunning photos. Pack a picnic and enjoy it on the grassy areas, at one of the picnic tables, or savor something delicious from the café right by the water. Parents will appreciate the small water playground, where kids can splash around and cool off.
Town Beach is also famous for the mesmerizing natural phenomenon known as the Staircase to the Moon. On select dates, as the moon rises over the exposed mudflats, it creates the illusion of a staircase leading to the heavens. It's a sight that draws both locals and visitors, leaving everyone in awe. The Town Beach Markets are often held during these events, offering a delightful mix of craft items, tasty food stalls, and lively entertainment. It's the perfect place to soak in the local culture and enjoy a magical evening.
For those with a keen interest in history, this area is a treasure trove of stories from the pearling era. You might even stumble upon some fascinating tales from the locals, adding a rich layer to your beach day experience.1 December 2023
