Sunset Coast & Gingin

Region Information

<p>The Sunset Coast encompasses the glorious coastline of metropolitan Perth from Cottesloe Beach along the famous beaches of Stirling, up to Two Rocks and the hinterland of Joondalup and Wanneroo.</p><p>The evening sun dipping spectacularly into the Indian Ocean gives this region its evocative name, and it's a sight you can enjoy daily, from any number of picturesque locations. While the beaches and facilities are inviting, and the weather is exceptional, it's rarely crowded. This area enjoys a wealth of open space that contributes to a wonderful sense of relaxation and freedom.</p><p>Getting around the region is easy, with an excellent road system that puts great beaches a short drive from the city centre, and the northern limits no more than an hour away. Most places are also accessible by bus or train.</p><p><strong>Gingin</strong></p><p> Further inland the landscape is a patchwork of rolling farmyards, idyllic coast, fresh seasonal produce and ribbons of vineyards, the stretch of countryside from Guilderton and Lancelin through to Gingin and the Chittering Valley offers a highly appealing place to explore.</p><p>This beautiful area is about one hour's drive north of Perth by following the coast or heading north on the Great Northern Highway.</p>'
