Busselton

Busselton is Western Australia’s holiday heartland. The maker of many happy memories is an old-fashioned beach retreat with roots stretching back to the 1890s.

Walk on water as you stroll along one of the world’s longest timber boardwalks and take the plunge into the Indian Ocean to see the coral gardens below. Casual cafés and waterfront restaurants set their sights on Geographe Bay. In spring, experience a painter’s palette of colour as the Wild West’s wildflowers begin to bloom.
