Perth

This sun-soaked seaside city is nestled between wineries, national parks, and 19 world-class Indian Ocean beaches. It’s also the sunniest capital city in Australia.

Whether you’re cruising the gleaming Swan River (Derbarl Yerrigan), exploring Kings Park (Kaarta Koomba) with an Aboriginal guide or enjoying fresh oysters at Elizabeth Quay, you’ll likely have blue skies overhead. Don’t miss Rottnest Island (Wadjemup), a car-free nature reserve, just a 25-minute ferry from Perth’s port city, Fremantle. This is the perfect place to start your Australian adventure.

Western Australia offers boundless natural adventures – there truly is something for everyone. Here are just a few of the state’s must-do highlights.

Eagle Bay, Dunsborough, Western Australia

Wonderous coastline

From snorkelling safaris along the Coral Coast to the snow-white beaches of Perth, Esperance and Margaret River, Western Australia’s coastline is a joy to behold. Here, you can escape to Indian Ocean islands, such as the Abrolhos and Rottnest, or seek out clifftop trails leading from one historic lighthouse or seaside town to the next. Thanks to its size, it’s always summer somewhere in Western Australia, so you’ll be happy if you’re seeking a golden glow.

Magical nature and wildlife

Animal encounters are a key ingredient for an unforgettable visit to Western Australia. Along the Ningaloo Coast you can see and swim alongside whale sharks, turtles, dolphins, manta rays and humpback whales. Stay on dry land and it’s echidnas, eagles and rare black-footed wallabies in the Cape Range National Park. Closer to Perth, you can see wild dolphins and sea lions in Rockingham, kangaroos in Yanchep National Park and adorable quokkas on Rottnest Island.

Fremantle Harbour, Australia

Western Australia’s cities

Perth’s a cosmopolitan capital with galleries, theatres and lively cafes lining the Swan River. To the south, Fremantle has a thriving art and cultural scene among heritage-listed pubs and West End warehouses home to creative restaurants and craft breweries. Continue southwest and Mandurah’s (Mandjoogoordap) dolphin-frequented canals and seafood are a magnet for travellers, while Margaret River’s markets and vineyards are a haven for foodies and wine buffs.
