Beach Access
The City of Perth Surf Life Saving Club is well connected to public transport, with bus stops located along Challenger Parade and West Coast Highway. The nearest stop is approximately 130 metres from the club, just a short 3-minute walk away. Bus services such as the 81 and 82 provide easy access.
Our clubrooms feature designated accessible (ACROD) parking bays within the main car park, as well as a set-down zone at the front entrance for taxis and private vehicles. Additional ACROD bays are located on both the northern and southern sides of the club building.
City Beach offers accessible amenities including ACROD parking and dedicated accessible toilet facilities. A beach access path runs directly from the main car park adjacent to the ACROD bays, providing wheelchair-friendly access to the sand and shoreline, along with convenient proximity to the accessible toilets.
During the summer months, mobi-mats beach matting is in place at City Beach and a Sandcruiser beach wheelchair and an all terrain rollator are available for hire. Each year, the matting is available from November through to March, depending on weather conditions.
The mats are annually installed near the south and north groynes. Wheelchair users will be able try the matting in their own wheelchair or alternatively hire the Sandcruiser beach wheelchair or All Terrain Rollator to access the entire beach.
