Known as Western Australia’s premier resort town, Busselton is the perfect getaway to experience the combination of a slow-paced seaside town and a bustling cosmopolitan city. This beautiful city is an interesting locale on its own, but it is also a gateway port to the well-known Margaret River wine region. Busselton is known for its impeccable coastline and the longest wooden jetty in the Southern Hemisphere. Visit the Underwater Observatory, a fantastic aquarium with more than 300 marine species waiting to be enjoyed. If you love natural beauty, enjoy the beautiful beaches and astonishing limestone caves. Culture and history lovers should visit the Busselton Museum or the Old Courthouse Art Complex, both providing an inside look into the ins and outs of the region both now and hundreds of years ago.
Western Australia’s oldest colonial settlement, Albany holds not only great historical significance but also immense natural beauty. Founded in 1826 as a British military outpost, the town evolved into a provisioning port for ships, a departure point for Australian troops bound for World War I, and eventually a base for the whaling industry. History buffs will be intrigued by sites such as the Anglican church, town hall, restored gaol and a one-of-a-kind whaling station museum, while the dramatic scenery of the rugged coastline will astound anyone fortunate enough to sail into Princess Royal Harbour. Known as Ataturk Entrance, the channel accessing the harbour from King George Sound is quite narrow, with forested peaks rising on either side from the rocky shores and sweeping white beaches. The view from your ship’s deck provides the perfect introduction to the natural wonders embracing this historic town.
Tucked away in secluded tranquility on the Bay of Isles, Esperance enchants with its easygoing attitude and pristine natural beauty. Explore Cape Le Grand National Park to witness friendly kangaroos and traverse the rugged coast by trail for gorgeous ocean views. Just off the coast of Esperance, nearly 100 untouched islands compose the stunning Recherche Archipelago, offering white sand beaches, eucalyptus forests, a unique pink-hued lake and extensive colonies of sea eagles, sea lions and fur seals. Spend the afternoon at Twilight Beach and marvel at the unusual rock formations, or visit the Esperance Museum for relics of local history, including pioneer memorabilia, shipwreck remains, aboriginal artifacts and more.
