1. Explore Kings Park & Botanic Garden

‘Freo’ as it is affectionately known by the locals, is known for its maritime, convict and colonial history. These days, however, it is a bustling cultural hub teeming with cafés, shops, pubs and markets.3. Relax on Rottnest Island
It’s an idyllic island playground just a short ferry ride from the mainland and a world away from city life. For such a tiny island, this car-free and carefree place packs a lot of pleasure into a day. Look out for the friendly Quokkas, a marsupial unique to WA.4. Swan Valley
Explore Western Australia’s oldest wine region, located just 20 minutes from the city. Many of the vineyards are still owned by descendants of early European settlers, who might just share some of their story over a fruity red at their cellar door.Want to explore more of Western Australia?
