Romantic Locations in Perth for Outdoor Lovers

1. Kings Park and Botanic Garden

Overlooking the Swan River and city skyline, Kings Park is one of Perth’s most iconic and breathtaking proposal spots. You can pop the question among native wildflowers or along the Lotterywest Federation Walkway. With panoramic views and peaceful surroundings, it’s perfect for a heartfelt moment.

2. Cottesloe Beach

With golden sands and Indian Ocean sunsets, Cottesloe Beach is an effortlessly romantic location. Propose during a walk along the shoreline or just as the sun dips below the horizon. The colors of the sky and sea will make your “yes” unforgettable.

3. Matilda Bay Reserve

Tucked along the Swan River, this peaceful reserve offers shaded lawns, calm waters, and views of the Perth cityscape. Bring a picnic or stroll the riverside path before proposing under the gum trees or at sunset by the water. It’s a laid-back yet stunning place to start forever.

4. Blue Boat House - Crawley Edge Boatshed

The famous Blue Boat House is one of Perth’s most photographed spots—and a favorite for proposals. Pose for a photo on the narrow jetty, then surprise your partner with the ring. It’s simple, beautiful, and incredibly memorable.

5. South Perth Foreshore

This riverside location offers picture-perfect views of the Perth skyline. Propose during a sunset picnic, or while walking along the shoreline with city lights beginning to sparkle. It’s peaceful, romantic, and ideal for evening proposals.

6. At-Home

Sometimes the most heartfelt proposals happen right at home. In Perth, set the mood with fairy lights in the backyard, a charcuterie board with local cheeses and Margaret River wine, or a dinner featuring fresh WA seafood. Add native blooms like kangaroo paw or eucalyptus to bring the charm of the outdoors inside. A home proposal gives you the freedom to create a moment that’s intimate, meaningful, and completely your own.

7. Budget-Friendly

A romantic proposal doesn’t require a luxury budget. Perth is full of beautiful, affordable places that offer unforgettable backdrops. Enjoy a quiet walk along the South Perth Foreshore with views of the city skyline, or head to Kings Park for a picnic surrounded by native wildflowers. These moments may be simple—but the memory will be priceless.
