Perth is blessed with an enviable climate, clean air, fantastic beaches and a laid-back lifestyle.
Set around the broad reaches of the Swan River the city is currently undergoing a major economic boom, reaping the rewards from its proximity to the huge gold, coal, oil and gas reserves which scatter the top half of Western Australia. This new found prosperity is more than evident on the streets of Perth as ever more gleaming skyscrapers pop up along the skyline and sleek cars whisk young execs from meeting to meeting.
At the heart of the city is leafy Kings Park, covering some 400 acres the park offers excellent views over this burgeoning city and the Swan River. Take a cruise along the river to Freemantle, Perth’s delightful port on the Indian Ocean, drive along the pristine sandy beaches of Scarborough and Cottesloe, board a ferry to Rottnest Island where crystal waters heave with marine life or head inland and sample some of the fine wines which come out of the Swan Valley.
Along with its industry boom, Perth is starting to gain a reputation as a bit of a foodie haven and so in the evenings pick from a wide and diverse selection of restaurants encompassing all manner of tastes and cuisines.
Experience a sundowner at Indiana Tea Rooms on the gorgeous Cottesloe Beach.
Stroll up to King’s Park to the ANZAC war memorial and a fabulous view of the city.
Catch a ferry over to Rottnest Island for a day of snorkelling, cycling or walking.
