Leisure Activities

Perth

Known as Australia’s “sunniest” state capital, Perth offers entertainment for the whole family. It’s also the perfect base from which to explore the rest of the immense Western Australia. Perth has fantastic beaches where you can relax and take it easy before you sample the nightlife. There are fantastic bars and superb restaurants serving mouth-watering cuisine. It’s also home to Kings Park, the world’s biggest inner-city park, featuring botanic gardens, expanses of bushland and tranquil gardens.

Karijini National Park

An ideal destination for anyone looking for a sense of adventure, Karijini National Park offers fantastic hiking trails through wondrous gorges, rock pools and stunning waterfalls. It’s Western Australia’s most dramatic natural attraction and was created two billion years ago. For the less energetic, there’s also access to fantastic viewing points and easier walking trails. There are many local tour companies offering 4-wheel drive tours from Perth.

Lucky Bay

There are many stunning beaches in Western Australia, and one of the most outstanding is Lucky Bay. Situated in Cape le Grand National Park, it offers stunning views of the Recherche Archipelago as well as fantastic swimming from the pristine 5 km sandy beach. The easiest way to reach the bay is by a 4-wheel drive excursion from Esperence.

More About Perth & Western Australia

Australia’s biggest state, covering a landmass of almost a third of the continent, Western Australia has a wealth of activities to deliver to the discerning traveller. The capital city of Perth is an excellent destination to base your visit with a fantastic selection of hotels, restaurants, tourist attractions, and sensational beaches. This is a huge destination to explore so it‘s definitely suited to people who love to self-drive. We can help you plan a personalised itinerary tailored to exactly where you want to go and what you want to see. Perth lies on the banks of the Swan River which winds its way from Darling Scarp to Freemantle. It's a popular place for fishing, boating, swimming and more. Take a leisurely cruise along the river to admire the sights and perhaps stop at Freemantle for a sightseeing tram tour of the city's historical attractions. Just 11 miles offshore from the coast of Western Australia is Rottnest Island which has over 60 beaches - one of the reasons it's so popular with locals and travellers alike. Spend a leisurely day on the sands or hire a bike to explore further. There's plenty to see including the quokkas; small wallaby-like marsupials found in very few other locations. Heading to the North West, you'll find the wilderness of Kimberley with vast landscapes and an unspoiled coastline just perfect for exploring. You'll need a 4x4 and an adventurous spirit. Still, you'll be rewarded with dramatic gorges, gushing waterfalls, crystal-clear lakes and wonderful locations such as the Bungle Bungle Range and Cable Beach.
