About

Quick facts: A massive inlet reshaping Perth's waterfront stretches almost half a kilometer along the Swan River. The iconic Spanda sculpture at its heart features 33 steel ribbons soaring 45 meters, catching sunlight in mesmerizing ways.

Highlights: The nightly light shows transform the steel ribbons into giant shifting ribbons of color, casting reflections on the water. Visitors love the quirky underground walkway beneath the inlet known as the "Tunnel of Time."

Insider tips

  • Wear comfortable shoes for exploring boardwalks and bridges.
  • Head to the Spanda sculpture at sunset for epic photos of colorful reflections.
  • Avoid weekends to dodge large crowds and enjoy a relaxed ambiance.
  • Try exploring the lesser-known Tunnel of Time for a unique perspective under the water.
