Western Australia’s Natural Playground<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A two to three hour drive south of Perth lies the sheltered shores of Geographe Bay. Voted one of the top 10 places to visit in the world by Lonely Planet, the region is famed for its breathtaking natural beauty.<\/p>\n

Here we have experienced extraordinary. From the heights of the largest remaining tuart forest in the world , to the depths of Australia’s greatest artificial reef at the Busselton Jetty. In between we have found hundreds more equally spectacular spots, and just as many ways to enjoy them.<\/p>\n

Geographe Bay is home to the vibrant seaside towns of Busselton, Dunsborough and Yallingup, 30kms of pristine, white sandy beaches fringe the renowned Margaret River Wine Region to create the perfect holiday spot for us. We extended our stay from one week to two !!!!<\/p>\n

The 145-year-old Busselton Jetty, measured at 1841 metres, is the longest timber-piled jetty in the southern hemisphere and today is one of Australia's most unique eco-tourism sites.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
