Leighton Beach

Leighton Beach, nestled just north of Fremantle, is a beloved spot for anyone craving some sun and sea. It's a fantastic place for snorkeling, swimming, or simply unwinding on the sand. With its gentle waves, it's an ideal destination for families with young children. Picture yourself lounging on the soft, white sand while watching wind and kite surfers master the breezy conditions offshore.

Take a dip in the cool, inviting waters of the Indian Ocean and give body surfing a shot. If the sea's calm, grab a snorkel and discover the underwater world teeming with marine life. For those who love a bit of exercise, the flat waters are perfect for joining the locals who swim along the coast every day. Wrap up your beach day by witnessing the breathtaking Western Australian sunset, with Rottnest Island providing the perfect backdrop.

Did you know that Leighton Beach is also a local favorite for early morning beach yoga sessions? It's a serene way to start the day, stretching with the sound of waves as your soundtrack. Plus, the beach is just a stone's throw from some charming cafes, where you can grab a post-swim coffee or a delicious brunch.
