Greenfields is a sprawling residential area in Perth's inner region, positioned conveniently between the city and the coastal town of Mandurah. The suburb itself is primarily residential with good shopping and services, but its real appeal for touring travellers lies in proximity to Mandurah's waterfront attractions and trail network.

The area offers straightforward access to multiple hiking and walking trails within a few kilometres, ranging from the nearby Joseph and Dulcie Nannup Trail to the longer Mandurah Foreshore routes. Two caravan parks operate within easy reach—Mandurah Caravan and Tourist Park and Mandurah Coastal Holiday Park—making it a practical base for exploring the coast. Public amenities are well-distributed with 55 public toilets across the region.

For dining and refreshment, several pubs are scattered through the wider area, including Silver Sands Tavern, Boathouse Tavern, and Players Bar. The suburb functions as a quiet residential stepping stone rather than a destination in itself, but offers reliable infrastructure for self-contained travellers seeking a less crowded alternative to staying directly in Mandurah.
