Stays in Scarborough

Scarborough is the west coast at its most straightforward: a long white beach, a proper break, and an esplanade that has finally grown up around it. The sunsets here are the reason people move to Perth and the reason they photograph it badly. Come down at seven and you will understand.

Good for: Anyone who wants the beach to be the plan, not a day trip.
