Alkimos Beach — Local services in Alkimos

I'm biased because I live here, but this beach is lovely.

There's a nice lookout with some seats, there's water/shower facilities and BBQs, in summer on the weekends there is Surf Lifesavers.

It is part of the Alkimos Beach Green lifestyle that dictates no cafes on the beach front and a set percentage of bushland be set aside to not be developed. This means that this beach is now and will remain to be a nice, local haven away from the overly commercialised beaches like Shorehaven or Eden Beach, no disrespect - they're lovely beaches themselves, but this beach is more of a natural experience, with only the bare amenities. Apart from toilets, that's a bit of a let down.

Because there is so much bushland set aside here, you are likely to see Kangaroos, Emus, Reptiles, one time I even saw an Echidna crossing the road!

The beach itself has a considerable amount of sand between the dunes and the shore, the underwater landscape is sandy with no reef and since it is more of a point than a bay, the seaweed accumulation is kept to a minimum.

WOW the northern corridor is just getting better and better Perfectly located in the centre of the popular north coast, just 15km north of Joondalup and 40km north of Perth, Alkimos Beach offers you the real beach lifestyle, not just a glimpse of the ocean. The Gateway Shopping Precinct is conveniently located at the entry of Alkimos Beach, on the corner of Marmion Avenue and Graceful Boulevard, directly opposite St James’ Anglican School. Stage one of The Gateway Shopping Precinct is now complete, offering a diverse range of amenities and services to the fast-growing Alkimos Beach community with blocks to suit a wide variety of buyers from first home buyers, downsizers, retirees as well as second home buyers. With the freeway extension coming as well as the train, lots of parks and schools nearby, you can't miss out in visiting Terrace WA, they are the two storey small block specialists and worthy of a mention, the only two storey builder who build with double brick as well as concrete to both the ground and upper floor unlike all the other timber or steel...

Nice place, sandy beaches. Good place to catch the typical bread and butter fishes. Sand whiting, herring, dart, Skippy.. Seen a few people caught decent size tailors, occasionally caught few pink snappers, all undersized. Biggest personally landed from the beach maybe just under 40cm, legal size is 50cm. Probably bigger ones out there but possibly need to use drone to drop bait...
