HOW TO GET AROUND WESTERN AUSTRALIA
If you’d rather not drive how about joining an adventurous small group adventure tour in the Kimberley, or an iconic rail journey across country to Sydney on the Indian Pacific.
WHAT TO DO IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA
One day you might be sandboarding in the Pinnacles Desert, the next swimming with manta rays and whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef. Experiences can be as refined sipping wine in the Margaret River or as exhilarating as charging through Horizontal Falls in a jet boat.

Western Australia Top Tips From Our Travel Experts
Sandy
Perth is known for its laidback lifestyle, beautiful beaches and stunning scenery. You will always find great food, cool cafés and cosmopolitan nightlife. Look out for the outdoor cinemas and trips on the river too. Make sure you spend some time here to appreciate the city before heading off to see the rest of the state.
Siobhan
A road trip up the Coral Coast is a truly spectacular experience! Exploring by motorhome gives you freedom and flexibility, as well as the opportunity to sleep out under the stars. If you are travelling during whale shark season I would highly recommend booking to swim alongside them, this was one of my most memorable travel experiences.
Lanie
Along Western Australia’s southwest coast you're surrounded by greenery of eucalyptus trees and vineyards. It’s a wine lover's dream with loads of cellar doors open daily, be sure to stop at the renowned chocolate factory near Margaret River for daily tastings and a lovely café.
