Local secret south of Perth’s famous Scarborough Beach
Brighton Beach is a little local secret which is located just south of one of Perth’s most well known beaches and surf spot, Scarborough Beach. Brighton Beach is popular as it is usually a lot quieter than its popular neighbour.
Located just a short walk away from the hive of activity in Scarborough which includes cafes, restaurants and bars, pubs and clubs and hotels. Just behind Brighton there is a big green park with a coffee shop so you can stay in the calmer surrounds of Brighton Beach if you wish.
