A New Era for Coastal Living in Western Australia
The pristine shores of Port Kennedy are witnessing the emergence of Kennedy Bay, a masterplanned community that's rapidly transforming into one of Western Australia's most desirable coastal addresses. This visionary development seamlessly integrates natural beauty with modern convenience, creating a lifestyle destination where residents can enjoy permanent vacation-style living.
The Heartbeat of Kennedy Bay: Links Kennedy Bay
At the core of this thriving community lies the completely redeveloped Links Kennedy Bay, an 18-hole championship golf course designed by the renowned Graham Marsh Golf Design. The course masterfully blends cutting-edge design principles with traditional Links characteristics, creating a world-class golfing experience that has become a central attraction for both residents and visitors.
Beyond the fairways, Links Kennedy Bay serves as a vibrant community hub, featuring the popular family-friendly restaurant and bar Birdie, The Nest Adventure Playground, a comprehensive golf shop, and four brand-new padel ball courts scheduled to open later this month.
Links Kennedy Bay Venue Manager Jamie Brigden expressed excitement about the reopening, stating: "It's fantastic to see the course back to its full 18 holes and ready to be enjoyed by members, locals and visitors alike."
To celebrate this milestone, the community will host a Family Festival on Sunday November 23 from 11.30am to 4.30pm, featuring family-friendly activities, opportunities to try the new padel courts, live music, and multiple entertainment zones.
Strategic Location and Ongoing Development
Kennedy Bay offers unparalleled accessibility, positioned just five minutes from Port Kennedy, 30 minutes from Fremantle, and 45 minutes from Perth. This strategic location ensures residents are never far from essential services and urban amenities while enjoying the tranquility of coastal living.
Development of Kennedy Bay's relaxed coastal village and foreshore precinct is now actively underway. The vision centers around beachfront views and walkability, with the main street planned to include a boutique grocer, cafe/restaurant, and apartments.
Place Development Australia Director David Roberts emphasized the unique opportunity: "Whether you're looking for a spacious family home or a low-maintenance retreat, Kennedy Bay has something for everyone. As the last north-facing coastal land development in WA, it is something special, and after strong sales of all releases to date, we expect high demand to be ongoing."
Future Amenities and Community Features
The foreshore development will feature a public jetty as its centerpiece, complete with boat moorings, shade structures, and designated swimming and fishing platforms. Construction is anticipated to begin next year, further enhancing the community's connection to the ocean.
Additional exciting developments include the Long Point Brewing Co. microbrewery, currently under construction and scheduled to open in April 2026 along the spectacular coastline.
The generous community beach and activated foreshore will welcome families, cyclists, and visitors alike, providing multiple access points to enjoy the ocean and surrounding natural environment.
With its combination of stunning beaches, world-class golf facilities, and thoughtful community design, Kennedy Bay represents a rare opportunity to secure a place in Western Australia's coastal property landscape. The development's focus on connectivity and convenience is now becoming a tangible reality for residents who have chosen to call this exceptional community home.
