Pristine beaches, historic whaling stations, and Indigenous sites—this is the ultimate Oz experience.


This is a year-round destination, though January and February see hotter summer temperatures. Spring and summer are perfect for the beach stops though West Australian school holidays bring statesiders to the coasts and parks (dates change annually). Whale watching season is from around September to December. You can visit the national parks at any time of year, though be aware that conditions in Stirling Range National Park are particularly subject to unpredictable changes in the weather at any time.
