North Cottesloe Beach is a 500 m stretch of west-facing sand and bluffs, which extends north from Eric Street to Grant Street.
In summer it is a popular snorkeling spot, but during winter and following higher waves, rips usually commence at the south end of the beach against the reefs. The reefs in particular induce stronger currents and deeper rip channels and should be avoided by swimmers.
The entire beach is backed by Marine Parade. North Cottesloe has limited parking and consequently is usually a less crowded beach.
The beach was one of the first developed on the Perth coast with the North Cottesloe club opening in 1912.
Beach Length: 0.5km
