Trigg Beach

Trigg Beach is a popular ocean beach in the suburb of Trigg within the City of Stirling, about 14 kilometres northwest of Perth, Western Australia. Facing the Indian Ocean along West Coast Drive, it is known for its white sand, limestone rocks, clear water and consistent surf breaks. The beach includes Trigg Point, Trigg Island and adjacent Mettam's Pool, and is patrolled by surf lifesavers, attracting swimmers, surfers and families.

Visitors can expect a long stretch of white sand backed by dunes and limestone headlands along West Coast Drive. The beach is divided into Trigg Point in the south, the main Trigg Beach, and Trigg Island with sheltered Mettam's Pool to the north. Facilities include car parks, toilets, showers and a surf life saving club. The ocean is open and surf-exposed with waves suitable for surfing, while Mettam's Pool offers calmer snorkelling. Grassed areas, lookouts and coastal walking paths overlook the Indian Ocean.

The suburb and beach are named after Henry Trigg (1791-1882), Superintendent of Public Works in the Swan River Colony. The coastline developed as a public recreation reserve in the early 20th century, with surf lifesaving becoming prominent after the establishment of the Trigg Island Surf Life Saving Club in the 1950s.

Located on Whadjuk Noongar Country, Trigg Beach is a central part of Perth's surf and beach culture, known for surf lifesaving, board sports and family beach recreation that forms part of local community life.
