Things to do in Perth & Western Australia

Perth's Kings Park & Botanic Garden is one of the world's largest inner-city parks, with skyline views from the Lotterywest Federation Walkway. In Fremantle, tour World Heritage-listed Fremantle Prison and browse Fremantle Markets, then take the ferry to car-free Rottnest Island (Wadjemup) to meet the quokkas. Further out lie the Pinnacles in Nambung National Park, the Swan Valley's food and wine and the Margaret River wine region.

Good to knowFremantle Markets open Friday to Sunday and on public holiday Mondays, so plan your Fremantle day around them. On Rottnest, hire a bike for the 26 km loop and keep a respectful distance from the wildlife. If you plan to taste in the Swan Valley, join a wine tour or arrange a driver.
