Living in Ocean Reef

Living in Ocean Reef

Ocean Reef is a beautiful suburb North of Perth and is the beginning part of one of the fastest growing corridors of land in Western Australia. The name was coined by developers in the 1970s from the line of a reef visible several kilometres offshore.

Ocean Reef is located within the City of Joondalup , just 8km north of Hillarys Boat Harbour and is a beachfront suburb. It also features the Ocean Reef Boat Harbour which provides a public boat launch and a small fishing harbor.

During recent years the City of Joondalup has prepared concept plans for the development of a world class recreational, residential, boating and tourism marina at the Ocean Reef Boat Harbour site (Ocean Reef Marina).

The boat harbour sits on this midway point at the western end of Hodges Drive, and there is a shopping centre in each end of the suburb – Beaumaris Shopping Centre in the north and Ocean Reef Shopping Centre to the south.

Ocean Reef is served by three primary schools (Beaumaris Primary, St Simon Peter Catholic Primary, and Ocean Reef Primary). Ocean reef also serves two high schools: Ocean Reef Senior High School (public) and the much respected Prindiville Catholic College (private)

A glorious coastal dune walkway/cycle path meanders up coast from south to north, offering access to several small beaches, picnic areas, rest stops, and access paths into the suburb itself.

Ocean Reef is a hotspot for migrants from the UK and South Africa as it has the best of everything on offer.  The average house price is $710,000 and the average weekly rental is $635.

It is just 24km from the Perth CBD with easy access to the Freeway and perth Train line.
