Western Australia’s capital sits beside the Swan River within reach of long ocean beaches. Its isolation from Australia’s eastern cities has helped create a distinctive, self-contained character.
Experiencing Perth
Explore Kings Park, riverside neighbourhoods and the city’s restaurants, then head to Cottesloe, Fremantle or Rottnest. The Swan Valley provides an easy first taste of Western Australian wine.
Planning your stay
Perth is the launch point for Margaret River, Ningaloo and the state’s vast north, so several city nights can make long-distance journeys feel far more comfortable.
