About Western Australia
Western Australia is like a giant playground and is the largest state in Australia. It is a state littered with stunning beaches and undiscovered coves. Almost three quarters of Western Australia’s population live in Perth where they thrive on a diet of sunny weather. Perth offers a high standard of living, pristine beaches, lush parks and fantastic cafes and restaurants.
Perth is the capital city of Western Australia and is located alongside the peaceful waters of the Swan River, 20 Kilometres inland of the Indian Ocean on the west coast of Australia. The city bustles with entertainment and offers a range of shopping and entertainment. If you enjoy long relaxing walks along clean sandy beaches, swimming in the surf on a warm sunny day, or perhaps lazing on a beach towel while watching the world go by then this could be the destination for you.
