Perth Guide

What is there to do in Perth?

Perth is one of the most visited cities in Australia and for good reason. Not only does it exude an effortlessly cool vibe with the myriad of trendy bars and chilled restaurants, there is the added bonus of the beautiful beaches that decorate the coastline. All of the beaches are ideal for whiling away a few hours under the notoriously powerful Australian sun, though Cottesloe Beach is a particular favourite due to the gloriously green surroundings and azure blue waters. For those that prefer to spend their time away from the shores, Kings Park and Botanic Gardens boast some of the best scenery in Western Australia. Part of Perth’s charm lies in its diversity; the numerous districts offer varying styles of architecture and the abundance of amenities lend themselves to a whole day exploring the outskirts of the city. Whilst in the city centre, it is worthwhile heading to the array of museums that line the spacious streets, or to indulge in some culture, embracing the local art scene at the selection of galleries. After exploring the city and travelling to the port, allow for some time to wander around the historic harbour.

How do visitors get around Perth?

Due to the extremely large land mass of Perth, there are copious bus, tram and train services in operation around the city. There is also a free tram that runs to certain areas. Obviously there are many road links should you be looking into the possibility of hiring a car.

Rottnest Island Guide

What is there to do in Rottnest Island?

Australia is hardly a country built on a hectic lifestyle, but Rottnest Island somehow manages to exude an atmosphere more relaxed than the mainland. The beautiful natural landscape is a haven of peace and tranquillity, and aesthetically satisfying enough to keep you occupied for a few days; explore the imposing cliffs and towering mountainside on the copious walking trails before grabbing your snorkelling gear and gracing the fresh blue waters. Snorkelling is a popular pastime with locals and tourists alike, though you won’t be hard-pressed finding a spot - 63 beaches and 20 bays decorate the coastline – even in the glorious summer months the waters are free to roam. The inviting terrain is so stunning that embarking on a challenging walk can prove too tempting, however, the beaches are equally alluring in the summer months when the sun shines down on the golden sands and blue waters. Dotted around the coastline are copious spots for whale watching; join others hunting for enviable photos to impress their friends.

How do you get around Rottnest Island?

Most choose to hire a bike and cycle around the island, which is the desirable option in the warm weather. Cars are not permitted on the island to maintain its peaceful reputation, but there is a bus shuttle service in operation.
