Margaret River & the South West Coast Holidays


australia
The stunning and diverse Margaret River region is famed for its abundant wineries and wealth of gourmet restaurants. Stretching from the white beaches of Busselton to the isolated beauty of Cape Leeuwin in the south, there are many charming towns inbetween from which to base yourself.

Travel along the scenic south coast and discover magnificent Karri Trees, some as tall as 90 metres high, before stopping in the picturesque town of Albany to learn of the fascinating convict and settler history. Further east lies the quaint seaside town of Esperance where you will share pristine white sands with the resident kangaroos.
