Mends Street Jetty

Mends Street Jetty is a public boat landing that extends into the Swan River, providing direct views of the Perth skyline across the water. The structure connects the waterfront area with dining venues and ferry crossings.

The jetty was expanded after the Perth Zoo opened in 1898 to handle growing ferry traffic from visitors heading to the site. These early changes show how the location adapted to serve the city's developing transportation needs.

The jetty serves as a gathering place where locals fish, walk, and enjoy the riverbank throughout the day. It has become a natural social hub where people of all ages spend time outdoors.

Visitors can park their vehicles in spaces near Cocos Restaurant before heading down to the jetty. The location is generally easy to reach and provides clear access to the water and ferry boarding areas.

A 2023 extension features a floating platform design that moves with changing water levels. This system keeps the landing accessible no matter how the tides shift throughout the day.
