Margaret River

Margaret River is a small town south of Perth in western Australia, known for its craft breweries, boutiques and surrounding wineries. Beaches and surf breaks line the nearby coast, whose waters host migratory whales (Jun–Nov). Stretching between 2 lighthouses north and south of the town, the long-distance walk, the Cape to Cape Track, fringes the limestone caves and sea cliffs of Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park.  Bursting with epic experiences and unfathomable landscapes, you can wander to the sounds of the ocean and azure blue water, as gnarly surf breaks and jaw-dropping limestone cliffs meet your eyes. Don’t be surprised if you spot a pro – or a handful of dolphins – riding the waves. Inland lies Margaret River’s premium wine region, home to award-winning wineries perched upon verdant green hills.
