Western Australia Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

Rottnest Island

This is another one of my favourite places in Perth 😍 And you if you’re heading for a holiday, you must come to the Rottnest Island 😍 I would say it’s like meeting paradise in earth. The clear waters, the white sand, an incredible environment. Everything is just beautiful and perfect 🫶🏼 Cars are not allowed in the island, and you have to take a ferry from the city(the best way is to take it from Fremantle and it costs around 40 AUS dollars 2 ways) Have you ever been in Rottnest Island? Let me know in the comments below 👇🏼 Follow my instagram for more @marcia3ferreira

Rottnest Island Perth

Rottnest is a must do if you’re visiting Perth! Rottnest is home to the Quokkas, they are so cute and actually are not bothered by humans, they don’t like to be touched or fed but you can get close enough for a Quokka selfie! There are so many beauty spots on this island. This was our first time visiting Rottnest and we decided to take Rottnest Express bus which is a hop on hop off express bus that can take you all around the island. Be aware if you’re going for the day you won’t make it to every stop so you’re better picking the top spots on the island. You can also choose to cycle around the island but if you’re anything like us, the island is very hilly and we decided to save our legs! We ate lunch at Pinky’s restaurant which is near the end stops on the bus, this is where there are a lot of Quokkas! The food was lush and so were the cocktails! Such a good day I’m planing to go back whilst I’m still in Perth. #perth #australia #rottnestisland #westernaustralia #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #summervacation #passionpassport #quokka #perthtravel

Rottnest island is definitely worth visiting…… It provides a variety of modes of go around the island, cycling, shuttling bus. …….. Quokkas are sooo cute and approachable. but be careful, visitors are not allowed to touch and feed them. they are quite isolated from the main island for a long time. the island provides many entertainment activities such as snorkelling, cycling and adventure boat tour.

Kings Park Great for Families

Travel to Perth and you will know how kids friendly the city is. In fact, almost everywhere you go, you will be able to find a playground. A park that i recommend going is the Kings Park. The place is big with vast place to run around and even have a family picnic on the grassland, while soaking in the sun. There is also a pond area where you see swans and ducks swimming in it. The playground is the kids favourite. There are many slides, swings, tunnels and stairs for the kids to play and enjoy, and use up their energy. Dont forget to pack and bring along your picnic basket because we saw families doing the same. This is a fun place for both parents and kids, and there is also a cafe within the park, if you need a break. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #passionpassport #perth

The park was built in 1890 and was named King's Park as a gift to King Edward of England at the time. From here you can take a bird's eye view of the entire city of Perth, with buildings and sea views echoing the city. The scenery in the park is not too much, green spaces, botanical gardens, uncultivated forests, various birds and western wildflowers, making it a place to watch and relax. The existence of the National War Memorial adds a heavy sense of history to the park.

The slogan of Perth, Australia is: the most lonely city in the world. And when I was here for a few days, I felt that it was not alone. The car was like a dragon, it was a busy seaside city, and it was like Zhuhai Shenzhen. But if you compare it to the above two cities, its life rhythm is really slower. Say goodbye to the CBD and the business district. There are fewer people with beautiful scenery. Everyday life comes out except in different locations. Sunset, in the bookstore adventure, is to look for a variety of Chinese food, especially recommended on the two [squeezing]

The town of Fremantle, which is known as the portal city that is immersed in the nineteenth century and does not want to wake up, is using its own unique charm to describe the long history and to soothe the hearts of all the tired travellers for hundreds of years. As a foodie, we head straight to the market as soon as we arrive at the destination. It is a weekend paradise for Perth people. It is open every Friday to Sunday, and there is a variety of gourmet snacks and fruit drinks. The price is not expensive, you can feel the local market atmosphere. There is also a street art piece called "Arcs De Ellipses"

Caversham Wildlife Park Perth, WA, Australia I strongly recommend you all go to this place if you go to Perth, WA, Australia. It was such a great experience that I have ever had! You can even hug a koala in your arms (have to pay a ticket for it beside the entrance ticket, but it's really worth) and have got a chance to see other animals that I only see through pictures or books.

Caversham Wildlife Park

The jetty is 1.845km long where you can choose to walk or take the train which will bring you to the end of the jetty. There is a little aquarium at the end.
