Western Australia is also known as WA. Its capital, Perth, is set on the banks of the Swan River, wedged between the rolling hills of the Swan Valley and the state’s endless sandy beaches. This is one of the most remote cities in the world, yet it's surprisingly cosmopolitan. Swim or surf at popular Cottesloe Beach or just laze on the golden sand. Head inland to Subiaco, with its historic architecture and trendy cafés. Browse the central Hay Street Mall before exploring Northbridge with its livelybars and clubs. Just to the south is Fremantle, a rejuvenated port city. “Freo” has art galleries, maritime museums, beaches and bohemian cafés. Cruise to Rottnest Island, where rare quokkas roam and the marine life is plentiful. A once sleepy surf town, Margaret River is the heart of the state’s culinary south, thanks to its abundant vineyards and farms. Drive south through forests of towering karri trees to historic Albany, a good base for whale watching. In the far southeast corner of the state, idyllic Esperancehas white beaches and turquoise bays. Also explore the more rugged coastal national parks and desert plains north of Perth. Take a detour to sleepy Monkey Mia in Shark Bay to meet friendly dolphins. Farther north, the vibrant Ningaloo Reef stretches from Coral Bay toExmouth. Snorkel or dive with turtles, manta rays and reef fish. In winter, spot whale sharks or humpback whales from a boat. Along a remote, red dusty road, cool off in the shady, lush gorges of Karijini National Park. In the vast Kimberley region is the once thriving pearling port of Broome, where one of the highlights is a ride on a camel’s back along Cable Beach at sunset. In the state’s far north, take a scenic flight or drive fromKununurra to the marvelous sandstone domes of the Bungle Bungles. East of Perth, in the gold mining town of Kalgoorlie, see the remnants of the historicgold rush, then be awed by the sheer size of today’s Super Pit. WAis vast and remote a vacation here will be a rewarding journey for its spectacularly contrasting beauty alone. ### Popular cities in Western Australia [PerthKnown for Dining, Shopping and Family-friendly](https://expedia.ca/Perth.dx180013) Unwind in Australia’s most remote state capital, set in a lush valley along a picturesque river and surrounded by great beaches, historic harbors and vast deserts. ## Reasons to visit - Elizabeth Quay - Murray Street Mall - Scarborough Beach [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Perth.dx180013)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Perth-Hotels.d180013.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [BusseltonKnown for Beaches, Marinas and Walking](https://expedia.ca/Busselton.dx10244) Explore this waterfront city’s gorgeous foreshore and check out a superb beach, an aquarium, fun-filled events and one of the world’s longest wooden jetties. ## Reasons to visit - Busselton Jetty - Busselton Jetty Underwater Observatory - Yallingup Beach [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Busselton.dx10244)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Busselton-Hotels.d10244.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [BroomeKnown for Beaches, Relaxing and Family-friendly](https://expedia.ca/Broome.dx6130647) One of northern Australia’s iconic destinations, this remote pearling town has perfect beaches, exotic marine life, fascinating history and a laid back atmosphere. ## Reasons to visit - Cable Beach - Matso's Brewery - Town Beach [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Broome.dx6130647)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Broome-Hotels.d6130647.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [AlbanyKnown for Friendly people, Ports and Whale watching](https://expedia.ca/Albany.dx553248634415770052) ## Reasons to visit - Torndirrup National Park - The Gap [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Albany.dx553248634415770052)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Albany-Hotels.d553248634415770052.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Margaret RiverKnown for Rivers, Wineries and Tours](https://expedia.ca/Margaret-River.dx180754) From touring vineyards and wineries to relaxing on some of the best beaches in Western Australia’s southwest, this town offers a variety of exciting pursuits. ## Reasons to visit - Xanadu Winery - A Maze'n Margaret River [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Margaret-River.dx180754)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Margaret-River-Hotels.d180754.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [BunburyKnown for Friendly people, Beaches and Sea](https://expedia.ca/Bunbury.dx553248634859904653) ## Reasons to visit - Marlston Hill Lookout Tower [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Bunbury.dx553248634859904653)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Bunbury-Hotels.d553248634859904653.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ## Cities in Western Australia ![Perth (and vicinity)](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res70/499000/499351-western-australia.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Perth (and vicinity) Unwind in Australia’s most remote state capital, set in a lush valley along a picturesque river and surrounded by great beaches, historic harbors and vast deserts.
