Sun, Surf and Sealife
Western Australia has over 12,000 kilometres of crystal-clear coastline, teeming with brilliant coral, unspoiled reefs, 19th century shipwrecks, spectacular surf and majestic sea creatures. There are activities galore in this giant aquatic playground.
Outback Adventure
Expect no less than an Aussie adventure holiday of a lifetime when you visit the Western Australian outback. This sun-kissed land is where you'll discover the Australia of legend and of old. Red dust, rocky gorges, gold rush towns and remote wilderness - it's raw, still and spectacular.
Forest and Flowers
Beyond Perth's city skyline lays an unspoiled wilderness, teeming with ancient forests, spectacular wildflowers and natural bushland. Ready to start exploring? Western Australia has the biggest and most vivid range of wildflowers in the world. Over 12,000 species carpet the landscape in a tapestry of brilliant blooms and perfumed scents, for at least five months of every year.
Food and Wine
From succulent seafood to world-class wines, Western Australia is a hot contender for the title of culinary capital of Australia. Freshly-caught barramundi, pink snapper and dhufish are firm favourites in Perth restaurants, which range from posh nosh on the waterfront, to cheap and cheerful eateries.
People and Lifestyle
Known affectionately as Sandgropers (named, oddly enough, after a subterranean bug!) West Australians are renowned for their world-famous friendliness and penchant for play. A laidback bunch quick to say "G'day" and shout a bevy of beer, they're proud as punch of their clean, unspoiled and picture-perfect home turf.
