Safe beach, huge range of bars, restaurants, shops (good prices too - bought a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses that were cheaper than the internet price!) Parking is free, safe and there's plenty of it. Great spot for a trip - and remember to fit in AQWA! ????

We chose where to live based on this beach and the local community! Nice wide beaches with pure white sand. Beautifully coloured water and skies. Nice to catch a sunset down there too. So good for the soul! Kids love the shallow water which extends out and we all love a walk or run up and down the beach. On calm days at low tide there are rockpools at the north end worth exploring and you can get all the way to Ocean Reef marina at the right times. Community vibe in Mullaloo is the best and most will say a friendly hello. We are also lucky to have nice restaurants, bar and cafes plus the gorgeous greenscape extending along south Mullaloo with play equipment, a basketball ring, BBQs and shelters. Love this beach.

Visited with my daughter and young grand children mid week. It’s very popular with young mums & kids. The playground is one of the best equipped I have visited with various levels of challenge. Well layed out and maintained. Tables and shelter available, ideal for picnic or family gathering. It’s set in the middle of the park so no fear of kids near roads. Plenty of parking. The lake is a lovely bonus. It’s nicely landscaped and fenced off. Relaxing to watch the birds. Lots of ducks and swans. The ducks are quite cheeky and happy to wander through the playground dodging the delighted toddlers trying to pat them. Lots of shady trees and surrounding paths ideal for walking, jogging or biking. Bring kids bikes. My grandson entertained himself for ages riding to the top of a path on a slope and cruising down then exploring by cycling around the lake over a small bridge. Got my steps up too!

Whether walking or cycling around the northern end of the park, this is a natural environment, not crowded, many trees and bush, good sized lake. This part is about 5kms around so an easy walk or several laps, especially for cycling. The remainder of the park beckons.

Always enjoy visiting Sorrento Quay, great shops, restaurants and cafes. It’s in a great location at Hilary’s Boat Harbour with a lovely beach and safe swimming. It’s an ideal place for a day out with family and friends.

I popped in on the way up to the Pinnacles and ended up spending a few hours at Lakeside looking around and shopping: - Haircut at JTs (super friendly hairdresser at this WA chain of stores ) - Massage at ChiLink - Lunch at Mad Mex in the food court - Coffee at CZ Espresso Etc This is the 2nd largest Shopping Centre in WA and I enjoyed its size and the large variety of shops (after 4 years living in Regional Queensland). It was super busy on the Saturday I visited whereas the CBD was dead so all of Perth must come out to Joondalup on weekends I guess?

This has been my favourite kayaking fishing beach. It has lots of parking and easy access to the beach. It is a great beach with fishermen and people just lounging around on b the beach. Always a great spot to enjoy kayaking.

Wednesday nights for the 20 odd weeks starting at 5pm is a must if you like a friendly Food Market with lots of variety. It is BYO and there is a band who plays background music but the emphasis is on food. The food vans sell high quality products and the range to mention a few is French, Italian, Korean, Spanish, Mexican and a dedicated Gluten Free van. There is also coffee, ice cream and even cream brulee. It is just a great night.
