Yanchep is coupled with neighbouring town Two Rocks and is often referred to as Yanchep Two Rocks. Located one hours drive north of Perth; the towns boast some of the most pristine beaches close to Perth. The name Yanchep is of Aboriginal origin, and is derived from ‘yanget’, a native flax or bulrush still found in Yanchep National Park. Other activities in the area outside of the popular national park include horse riding, fishing, bushwalking, caving, sailing, swimming, surfing and scuba diving. Yanchep offers a country lifestyle within easy distance of Perth. In late spring migrating whales can be seen, most frequently from Lagoon Beach, a favourite swimming spot. Yanchep offers the visitor a choice of restaurants and a small beach side cafe. Accommodation ranges from bed and breakfasts to self catering and motel style accommodation within walking distance of the beach.
