Western Australia

A Western Australian holiday offers sun, adventure, an awesome natural environment and friendly people - it's what you'll find on a holiday to Western Australia whatever time of year you visit.

Nowhere else in the world can you experience and interact with such unique natural attractions.

Dive with the world's largest fish - the whale shark, snorkel with manta rays, swim with wild dolphins, walk amongst the tree tops of ancient trees, sleep under a canopy of stars in the desert, or explore the beehive-like formations of the Bungle Bungles with the help of an Aboriginal guide.

Western Australia truly is the authentic Australian experience.
A Climate to Suit All Occasions
The big variety of landscapes and climates in Western Australia means there is always plenty of sunshine, making it a perfect year-round Australian holiday destination.

It is a land blessed with spectacular diversity where the deep reds of ancient interior rock formations contrast with the sparkling blue of the Indian and Southern Oceans and the lush greenery of the stunning southern regions.

Western Australia is famous for its long days of sunshine, spotless blue skies and brilliant beaches.

Western Australia's Many Distinct Regions
The capital of Perth is Australia's western gateway and a great place to start your holiday.

Perth City in the centre of Experience Perth offers an easy-going lifestyle - the beautiful Swan River and inner-city parks like Kings Park add to the relaxed, natural feel.

There is much to see and do in this part of the State, from swimming in crystal clear ocean waters to enjoying a sunny afternoon sipping a cold beer at an open-air pub.

From the city, head to the South West for world class wineries, luxury accommodation and forests of tall trees. These taper off to a ribbon of coastal hinterlands of sheltered bays and rivers, often lined with massive granite boulders and stunning outlooks.

Here, life is simple and genuine, offering a taste of rural Australian living along with relaxing country retreats and secluded chalets.

The Golden Outback's spectacular outback and goldfields are the place for historic townships, brilliant, starry night skies, and wide open spaces with spinifex and red earth as far as the eye can see. Here too, are the beaches of the Southern Ocean. These seas can be wild one day and brilliant blue calm the next - they're also home to humpback whales and their calves.

Awesome marine life, endless white sand beaches and warm, turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean characterise the Western Australia's far north. Sunshine, cooling sea breezes and the outdoor activities of the Coral Coast make it a relaxing and friendly Australian holiday destination.

If it's an Aussie frontier adventure you're after head further north to the North West.

Here you'll find rugged ancient landforms, remnant rainforest, deep red gorges, vast cattle stations and pioneering personalities, ancient Aboriginal culture and unique quality accommodation. After visiting the North West you will see why Baz Lurhmann chose this location to be the backdrop for 'Australia' the movie.

The sheer size of Western Australia beckons visitors back time and again to explore the huge number and range of Australian holiday possibilities.
