Overview

Bicton is an affluent riverside suburb 10 km south‑west of Perth’s CBD, lined with the Swan River to the north and dominated by the Class‑A reserve at Point Walter. Almost all of the area is residential, with many homes set on historic limestone foundations and the steep terrain of Castle Hill providing scenic views. Families and water‑sport lovers enjoy the Bicton foreshore, Bicton Baths and the jetty for swimming and fishing, while the Bicton Swimming Club and Melville Water Polo Club host national‑league games and the annual Tom Hoad Cup. A strip mall on Canning Highway, the Leopold Hotel, three shopping facilities, several parks, an eight‑hole golf course, tennis courts and extensive walking and cycling paths add to the suburb’s lifestyle appeal.
