Cottesloe Beach

in Cottesloe Beach, WA, Perth What a long lovely beach! It's very beautiful and attractive. I find it interesting to walk down the groin out there as well. The weather is cool, not too cold, but it could be cold at night. People here are very friendly and look sporty and healthy as well.
