Already explored the east coast? Go west.
If you’ve already driven between Sydney and Brisbane or Brisbane and Cairns, it’s time to go west. The wild, rugged and less-visited shores of Western Australia offer a completely different aspect on Australia. Expect fewer crowds – because fewer than one in five overseas visitors makes it over to Western Australia.
Explore a reef you can snorkel to directly from the beach at Ningaloo, meet a colony of quirky little quokkas on Rottnest Island and set off on easy drives against a backdrop of endless blue where the infinite skies meet the Pacific Ocean. On your way, look out for dazzling pink lagoons, wave-shaped rocks and deserts scattered with bizarre pinnacles.
