Western Australia is bound by one of the world's most pristine coastline to the west and bordered largely by desert to the east. Perth, the capital city of the State, enjoys more hours of sunshine than any other capital city in Australia. Its warm sunny climate, clear blue skies and beautiful beaches are making it an increasingly popular destination. Sophisticated yet uncomplicated, the lifestyle in Western Australia is a relaxed one.

With its vast expanses, remoteness and isolation, Western Australia is a State of spectacular diversity in its landscape, environment and people... the perfect playground for any Experience Seeker. Perth, and nearby Fremantle, are among the most pleasant cities to visit in Australia. Blessed with great weather and fabulous beaches, these cosmopolitan cities boast top-class restaurants and attractions. Nearby are other major destinations, including Rottenest Island and superb wineries.

Perth is an ideal base from which you can explore the diverse surrounding attractions. In Perth you'll find everything, plenty of riverside and beachside restaurants and cafes, a 24 hour world class casino, international quality golf courses, and a huge range of outdoor activities and experiences to enjoy.

There's plenty to see and do in the West. Be captivated by the mysterious Bungle Bungle formations in the Kimberley, explore ancient gorges in the Pilbara, meet wild dolphins at Monkey Mia, be spellbound by the colours and variety of up to 12,000 species of wildflowers in season, discover the romance and character of the Goldfields, take in the beauty of tall timbers and breathtaking scenery in the South West, and marvel at spectacular Wave Rock and the eerie Pinnacles. Because of its massive size and small population, WA offers visitors pristine untouched Australian landscapes. From rolling green pasture lands, vineyards and grain fields to wild coastline, rainforests, inaccessible Australian outback wilderness and giant Karri forests.

Covering nearly one third of Western Australia, the Goldfields and South East is a land of contrast. You'll find gold-rush frontier towns like Kalgoorlie, and other towns rich in pioneering history. Then there's the spectacular coastal landscape of Esperance and the unique and haunting Nullarbor Plain
