Water sports are easily some of Perth’s favourite pastimes. With so much pristine coastline, the beach and water are a huge part of living in Perth, so it may not come as a surprise if your child decides they would like to take up a beach or water sport. Children can have a go at surfing, stand up paddleboarding, surf lifesaving or kayaking. With summer just around the corner, now is the time to think about enrolling your child in a water or beach program.
