Perth offers a range of effortless day trips to enjoy, most within an hour of the city. Wherever you go, you’ll meet friendly locals at every turn.
Perth City / Boorloo
Situated on the banks of the Swan River / Derbarl Yerrigan, Perth offers adventures for everyone. Enjoy unique wildlife encounters and wine country but also a thriving metropolis of small bars, restaurants, and curated cultural experiences. Soak up the sun at any of the 19 stunning beaches within easy reach of the city and feel the thrill of Optus Stadium’s Halo Rooftop Walk or Matagarup Zip+Climb. Learn more here.
Fremantle / Walyalup
Fremantle, or ‘Freo’ as the locals call it, is Perth’s port city, situated where the Swan River meets the Indian Ocean. Just a 30-minute drive or train from Perth city, it’s bursting with vibrancy, colour and quirky culture. It’s not just art galleries, pubs and cafés that are sprinkled throughout this bohemian town — the bustling Fremantle Markets (still going strong after 100 years) and one of Australia’s first micro-breweries, Little Creatures, are there too. Dig into fresh seafood harbourside and enjoy a cocktail on the beach as you watch an Indian Ocean sunset. Learn more here.
Rottnest Island / Wadjemup
Rottnest Island — or ‘Rotto’ as it’s affectionately known — is a little pocket of paradise, jam-packed with adventure. Getting to this car-free, protected nature reserve is easy: take a short ferry ride from the mainland or arrive in style by helicopter or airplane. You’ll be greeted by 63 stunning beaches, 20 beautiful bays, spectacular marine life, and the world’s happiest animal, the adorable quokka! Learn more here.
Swan Valley
Perth is home to the Swan Valley, the only wine region within an Australian capital city. Home to more than 40 wineries and 70 restaurants and cafes, the Swan Valley is both rich in history and contemporary. Thriving in its Mediterranean-style climate, this is Western Australia’s oldest wine region. And where there is wine, there's also a locally crafted beer, cider and spirits. Learn more here.
