Western Australia Holidays

Experience Western Australia 

The extraordinary state of Western Australia is jam-packed with amazing travel experiences. Outback, ocean and desert all come together here, offering opportunities to discover wonderous cities – like friendly coastal capital Perth – as well as time-warp gold-rush towns, world-class vineyards, incredible wildlife, sugar-white sand beaches and kaleidoscopic reefs. The state’s diversity means it is almost impossible to describe in a few words and you'll want more than just a few days to see it all, which is why we’ve created holidays that take in multiple spots around the state...

Where to Go in Western Australia

Western Australia stretches across nearly a third of the country, serving up larger than life marine creatures, laid-back city living and more than 7,700 miles of pristine coastline. Most holidays to the state will begin in Perth, Western Australia’s capital city. From Perth you can venture south to the bohemian town of Fremantle, and from there take a ferry to the wildlife haven of Rottnest Island. From the laid-back capital, visitors can springboard into Western Australia’s world-class wineries, fringing coral reefs and iconic outback adventures by making the most of Qantas Explorer fares from Perth.

When to Go to Western Australia

As such a large state, Western Australia’s climate is incredibly diverse, ranging from Mediterranean in the south to tropical in the north. Luckily for you, this means there’s always somewhere sunny to explore in the state no matter what time of year you visit. Temperatures do drop in the winter months of June to August, particularly in the lower end of the state with temperatures in Perth falling to 12°C. These cooler conditions make for a great opportunity to visit the Margaret River for country walks and wine tasting. March to July is also the best time to visit Western Australia to swim with whale sharks, while the summer months of December to February are best spent cooling off at the beaches near Perth and Fremantle.
