15 days in Perth Itinerary

A modern metropolis of glassy skyscrapers, waterside boulevards, and lush residential neighborhoods, Perth sits on the edge of the Swan Coastal Plain.

Change things up with these side-trips from Perth: Rockingham (The Catalpa Memorial, Penguin Island, &more), Fremantle (WA Maritime Museum, Fremantle Prison, &more) and Yanchep National Park (in Yanchep). Dedicate the 5th (Fri) to wine at some of the top wineries in the area. And it doesn't end there: stroll around Kings Park and Botanic Garden, learn about wildlife with up-close encounters at Perth Zoo, enjoy the sand and surf at Cottesloe Beach, and pause for some photo ops at State War Memorial.
