Mindarie is a coastal suburb located in the northern part of the Perth metropolitan area in Western Australia. Roughly 36 kilometres north of the Perth CBD, Mindarie is bordered by Quinns Rocks to the north, Clarkson to the east, and Tamala Park to the south. The suburb is well-known for its scenic marina, Mindarie Marina, which serves as a focal point for the community and offers sweeping views of the Indian Ocean. Its proximity to both beaches and essential transport links, such as the Mitchell Freeway and Clarkson railway station, makes Mindarie a desirable location for both commuters and those seeking a relaxed, beachside lifestyle.

Mindarie’s residential landscape is characterised by modern housing estates, generous green spaces, and a mix of architectural styles, including large family homes, townhouses, and some luxury waterfront residences. Many properties in Mindarie boast ocean views or easy access to the marina, contributing to the suburb’s reputation for high-quality, attractive living environments. Recent census data suggests that Mindarie residents tend to have higher-than-average household incomes compared to wider Perth, and the suburb is popular with families, professionals, and retirees alike, reflected in its median age which is slightly above the Perth average.
