Chrissy jumps on a new bus service to explore the best of Perth’s Sunset Coast, hopping between beaches, dining spots, and coastal attractions this summer.

• The Coastal Explorer Bus, introduced by the City of Stirling and City of Joondalup, offers a convenient and cost-effective way to explore Perth’s Sunset Coast without needing a car.
• Two tour options are available: one departing from Barrack Street Jetty in the Perth CBD to the coast, starting at Scarborough, and another connecting Scarborough and Hillarys with six daily round trips.
• Key attractions include Scarborough’s surf shops, skate park, bouldering wall, WA’s only heated seaside pool, diverse dining options, and beachfront accommodation; and Hillarys, known for its sheltered beach, water sports, shopping, dining, and access to AQWA and Rottnest Island ferries.
• Double-decker buses provide panoramic ocean views, open-air seating, and onboard commentary that enhances the journey with local insights.
• Tickets cost just $10 for adults, offering an affordable all-day pass for exploring the coastline.
• The last bus from Scarborough to the CBD departs at 4 PM, with tickets available online or directly from the driver, ensuring easy access for visitors.
