Day 2: Lancelin and the Pinnacles

An almost otherworldly adventure awaits in Lancelin, where you’ll get the unique experience of sandboarding down massive dunes. You’ll feel like you’re in the middle of the desert!

Finish off the day with a drive to Nambung National Park to meet the Pinnacles. These ancient limestone pillars are a must-see attraction in Perth and a beloved iconic destination.

Swan Valley, Tourism Western Australia

Day 3: Swan Valley

It’s time to head back inland towards Swan Valley, Western Australia’s oldest wine region! Enjoy a day of wine tasting, artisan cheeses, and delicious handmade chocolate. Trust us, you’ll have a fridge stocked of goodies by the end of it.

Alternatively, you can spend your day at Caversham Wildlife Park, which is a prime location to cuddle a koala or feed a kangaroo.

Day 4: Fremantle

Just a short 30-minute road trip from Perth, Fremantle is a vibrant port city with an artsy vibe. Explore the Fremantle Markets, grab a coffee at the Cappuccino Strip, and tour the historic Fremantle Prison. Don’t miss the sunset at Bathers Beach!

Rottnest Island, Tourism Australia

Day 5: Rottnest Island

No Perth road trip is complete without a visit to Rottnest Island! Park your motorhome nearby, then hop on a ferry from Fremantle. Spend your day meeting the adorable quokkas, bike riding around the island, and snorkelling in the turquoise waters.

Eagle Bay Beach, Tourism Western Australia

Day 6: Margaret River

A bit of a drive, but well worth adding to your Perth road trip itinerary. Margaret River is best known for its surf beaches, caves, and, of course, its wineries. This is the place to be if you know you’ll enjoy a day filled with Australia’s best wines, cave tours, and stunning white sandy beaches!

Day 7: Return to Perth via Bunbury

Unfortunately it’s time to wrap up the trip, but there’s still fun to be had! On your way back to Perth, stop by Bunbury for a chance to watch and play with dolphins at the Dolphin Discovery Centre. Then, when you’re ready, enjoy a leisurely drive back to Perth along the coast.
