A Perth holiday offers the delights of a thoroughly metropolitan city and the pure escapism of vast national parks. The sunniest city in Australia, Perth boasts no fewer than 19 stunning beaches, all lapped by the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean.
Whether you want to enjoy the sun on your skin in the Kings Park botanical gardens or experience the thrill of the ocean breeze in your hair at a watersports centre, your holiday in Perth has it all. Soak up the truly unique atmosphere of Yagan Square, which brings together the ancient culture of the Aboriginal people with clever architecture and modern eateries.
Blissful days and vibrant nights on holidays to Perth
A variety of short breaks from Perth offer you the chance to further enhance your holiday.

Walking tours of Perth
A trip down to the modern waterfront complex provides splendid views over the clean and compact city centre. But stroll around the leafy haven of Kings Park, and you’ll start to get a feel of Australia’s natural diversity. From the harbour, take a trip to Rottnest island and experience the wild side of the coast.
Kings Park
Kings Park is one of the largest urban parks in the world, situated practically in the city centre. There are fantastic views over the Swan and Canning rivers, as well as walking trails lined with immense trees and diverse botanical gardens. This is the perfect place for a picnic and provides an oasis away from the bustle of the city.
Beaches on the Perth coast
Discover hundreds of beautiful beaches of along the Perth coast. From the central Cottesloe Beach, to the reef at Mettams Pool, or the calm waters and white sand of Leighton Beach, you’ll be spoilt for choice. Scuba divers should head underwater for a tour of the colourful coral, while sailing and surfing are a must for water sports enthusiasts.
Rottnest Island
Only a short boat trip from Perth, Rottnest Island offers a stunning coastline of tranquil rocky creeks and sandy coves. Spend a day in this tranquil oasis, soaking in the beautiful sights and finding your own secluded beach. The protected island reserve is home to Australia’s cutest rare marsupial, the Quokka. These friendly creatures are only too happy to have their photos taken.
Swan Valley
The oldest of Western Australia’s wine growing region, Swan Valley has over 40 producers and hosts regular wine tastings. You’ll find a selection of gourmet food producers where you can sample some of Australia’s delicacies. The wildlife park allows you to get up close to some of the country’s unique creatures, and you can explore the area by car, bike or by boat.
“Visit the beautifully kept Kings Park for breath-taking panoramic views over Swan River and the city of Perth. Meander along the garden trails and between exotic plants, before stopping to savour a picnic or barbeque, just like a local.”
“Sample the delights of the Margaret River wineries, before embarking on an indigenous tour of the ancient Ngilgi Caves. Learn traditional fire-lighting and tool-making skills to bring historical times back to life, right in front of your eyes.”
