Timeline
18:25
Start at the Grosvenor Hotel for a pre-dinner drink. It is open from 11:00 on weekdays and weekends, so you have plenty of time to settle in before the evening rush.
18:55
Walk 8 minutes from the pub to Langley Park. Find a spot on the grass facing west towards the Swan River. The park is open all day, and this is the perfect vantage point to watch the light change.
19:25
Watch the sunset. On this date, the sun sets at 19:25, casting a golden glow over the water and the city skyline.
19:55
After the light fades, walk 22 minutes south to Sir James Mitchell Park. This foreshore park offers a different perspective of the river and a quiet place to linger as the city lights come on.
Local tip
Langley Park is a long rectangular space. For the best sunset view, position yourself on the western end of the grass near Riverside Drive to look directly west.
