Central Coast

The Central Coast region is a stunning coastal and inland area renowned for its ocean views, tourism opportunities, and vibrant communities.

Stretching from the pristine beaches of Lancelin and Jurien Bay to the picturesque countryside of Chittering and Bindoon, the Central Coast offers an array of natural attractions and recreational opportunities. Visitors can explore the Pinnacles Desert in Cervantes, enjoy the nature reserves of Badgingarra, and relax by the scenic Moore River in Guilderton.

The region is also home to thriving agricultural hubs like Dandaragan and Bindoon, renowned for their fresh produce and innovative farming practices. Additionally, the historic town of Gingin offers cultural and scientific attractions, such as the Gingin Observatory.

As a key part of the Northern Growth Corridor, the Central Coast is driven by significant investments and a notable population surge in the peri-urban areas. This region is celebrated for its stunning natural landscapes and strong sense of community, making it an ideal destination for visitors and residents alike.
