Nine Reasons Brighton-Le-Sands Is the Best City in Australia

  • Written by NewsServices.com

Brighton-le-Sands is a lovely suburb about thirteen kilometres from Sydney's capital. This vibrant suburb is on Botany Bay's western shore and covers about 1.566 square kilometres.

The name Brighton-le-Sands originated from an English resort built by a leading developer and entrepreneur, Thomas Saywell. The population boomed after the construction of the tramline line connecting the beach at Brighton and Rockdale and the railway line to Hurstville.

Let’s discover Brighton's best-kept secrets and the top nine reasons it’s the best city in Australia.

  1. Kyeemagh Beach

Kyeemagh is on the southernmost end of Lady Robinson Beach, next to Cooks River’s mouth. This particular area of the beach has several remaining dunes that provide some cover against strong winds.

It's a fantastic spot to enjoy weekends and catch up with friends and family, as it’s safe enough for kids to enjoy the water.

  1. The Sandy Lady Robinsons Beach

Lady Robinsons Beach was initially called Seven Mile Beach. The name was changed in honour of Governor Sir Hercules Robinson’s wife in 1874.

Lady Robinsons Beach is among the cleanest non-surf beaches in the entire Sydney metro area. This is mainly because the tidal activity in the region maintains the bacteria levels very low.

The beach's southern end has shallow waters, which is perfect for small kids to enjoy the water.

  1. Quality Education

The local public schools in Brighton-Le-Sands are excellent and inclusive, such as Brighton-Le-Sands Public School, St Thomas More's School, and St George Girls High School.

  1. Ramsgate Suburb

The suburb of Ramsgate is on Botany Bay, roughly sixteen kilometres to the south of Sydney’s central business district. The surrounding suburbs are Sans Souci, Ramsgate Beach, Beverley Park and Monterey.

Ramsgate Suburb primarily consists of residential houses, with a vibrant shopping strip along Rocky Point Road, close to the intersection with Ramsgate Road. This proximity is convenient for most residents since all the necessary amenities are nearby.

  1. Local Culinary Experience

Brighton Le Sands is home to several well-established restaurants and franchises. The new Gelato Messina offers an excellent family dining experience like Neptune restaurant and Nakhon Thai by the Beach.

  1. Economic Growth

Brighton Le Sands has numerous investment and business opportunities in the local community. The proximity to Sydney Airport, the Illawarra rail line and the beach makes it ideal for food and service, transport and real estate businesses.

  1. Outdoor Activities

Brighton Le Sands is home to fantastic spots to explore with your family and friends. The cool sea breeze, white sand beaches and calm, clear waters promise fun outdoor activities such as sailing and kite surfing.

  1. Laidback Lifestyle

Brighton Le Sands is the perfect place to live, with a few minutes commute from home to the business district. The inclusive community ensures an ideal environment to encourage a healthy and active lifestyle for your family.

  1. The Natural Appeal

Brighton boasts serene panoramic views of the beach and water. There are various gorgeous picnic spots in Cook Park and along the beach all the way to Botany Bay with breathtaking views of the sea.

Conclusion

The gorgeous palm trees lining the beach and calm waters make Brighton the perfect place to enjoy sunsets at your doorstep. The friendly local community has a rich, diverse culture, with a mixture of people from Australia, Europe and as far as the Middle East.

Brighton-Le-Sands is a great place to call home regardless of your lifestyle and preferences.
