Rising on a ridge above the Swan River with sweeping views over the city, Kings Park is a vast expanse of native bushland and gardens that ranks among the cleanest-air spots in Perth. Its elevation and tree cover, combined with the absence of any significant traffic or industry within the park itself, mean pollutants from the surrounding city rarely accumulate here. Consistent sea breezes off the Indian Ocean sweep through the elevated parkland, reinforcing air quality that's a clear step above the busier streets below.

When is air pollution at its worst in Kings Park?
For visitors and locals in Kings Park, the Perth-wide risk period is summer months, when fires in nearby bushland can send smoke through on hot, dry days. The rest of the calendar is usually untroubled, with sea breezes clearing the air. Sensitive groups should watch forecasts during that period rather than assume year-round conditions apply.
Are air quality levels in Kings Park based on measurements or forecasts?
It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.
During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
