The spectacular South West region of Western Australia is a must-see when visiting this wonderful state.

This beautiful region has so much to offer even the most adept traveller; spectacular beaches, mouth-watering food, world-renowned wine and stunning scenery. Just a 3-hour drive from Perth, the Margaret River wine region offers some of Australia’s finest wines produced across the area’s 200 plus vineyards.

One cannot miss a visit to some of Australia’s most famed beaches along the South West coast. Whether enjoying the golden sand and crystal clear waters from the shore, or admiring the scenery atop the jagged coastline cliffs, the lure of the beaches is not to be missed!

The Cape Leeuwin lighthouse is a history-buff’s dream, standing tall over the treacherous meeting point of the Indian and Southern Oceans. Built in 1895 the Cape Leeuwin area is rich in maritime history and a climb to the summit of the lighthouse gives a gorgeous panorama of the Indian and Southern Ocean from Australia’s most southwesterly point.

The popular South West towns of Busselton and Dunsborough is a great place to wind down and enjoy the coastal town vibe. Yallingup and Gracetown, just 15 minutes from Dunsborough are some of the best surfing spots in the world attracting hundreds of world class surfers every year. Dunsbourgh is also a fantastic place for “whale watching”, with Southern Right and Humpback whales breeding and playing in the Geographe Bay region from September to December.

This fantastic region has so much to offer visitors to Western Australia and is fast becoming one of WA’s hotspots! For more information, see here.
