Product Description

Point Peron Beach Wall Art — Rockingham, Western Australia

Point Peron sits at the end of the limestone headland at Rockingham, where the reef runs close enough to shore to break the water into bands of colour. This aerial photograph looks across the sheltered bay, dark reef spreading beneath clear turquoise shallows with the coastline stretching away behind it.

This is the calmer, more sheltered side of the Perth coast. Point Peron marks the edge of the Shoalwater Islands Marine Park — protected waters that are home to sea lions, dolphins and the little penguin colony on nearby Penguin Island. The limestone headland itself still carries WWII gun emplacements and tunnels cut into the rock, a reminder that this was once Perth's coastal defence.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. Its 100MP Hasselblad camera reads the reef structure straight through the water and keeps the sand ripples in the shallows sharp at every print size — detail that only exists because these sheltered waters sit so still.

Sheltered calm for a room

The colour banding here is unusually rich for a Perth beach, which makes this piece visually interesting without being busy. It suits living rooms, bedrooms and offices, and works beautifully in coastal and contemporary interiors.

For anyone who has spent a summer around Rockingham — the snorkelling, the ferry to Penguin Island, the walk out to the point — this is instantly, unmistakably familiar.

Available as a fine art paper print or stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across a full range of sizes. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of places he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

Point Peron sits at the end of the limestone headland at Rockingham, and the reef runs close enough to shore to break the water into bands of colour. It is one of the most sheltered stretches on the Perth coast, which is why the water sits so still.

There is more going on here than a pretty bay. This is the edge of the Shoalwater Islands Marine Park — sea lions, dolphins, and the little penguin colony out on Penguin Island. The headland itself still has WWII gun emplacements and tunnels cut into the limestone.

The 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro reads the reef straight through the surface and keeps the sand ripples sharp — detail that only exists because water this protected barely moves. Anyone who has spent a summer around Rockingham knows this view immediately.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
