Lesson with Margaret River Stand Up Paddle
Only a three to four-hour drive from Perth, Margaret River is a favourite holiday destination for local and international tourists alike thanks to its beautiful natural attractions such as the magnificent caves, refreshing climate, and the world-class wineries in the area. Whatever you have in mind for a perfect holiday, Margaret River has it all. Here are some things that make Margaret River a must-visit destination while you’re in Western Australia.
Get On The Wine
It’s simply impossible to be in Margaret River without visiting the region’s world-famous wineries. Over 150 wine producers operate in Margaret River, making the region a paradise for wine aficionados. Among the most famous wineries in Margaret River are Brookwood Estate, Cape Naturaliste Vineyard, and Cape Mantelle – there are so many in the area that it’s difficult to just pick a few! Join a Margaret River Vintage Wine Tour and treat your tastebuds to local wine, cheese and chocolate beside breathtaking scenery. There are plenty of opportunities to sample and purchase the produce of the region.
Captivating Caves
Margaret River is also renowned for its beautiful and unspoiled caves. The most famous of these caves is Mammoth Cave, surrounded by forests in the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. Over 500-metre-long and 30-metre-deep, the most intriguing part of the cave is the extinct animal fossils around the area, most of them being over 30,000 years old. Lake Cave at the aptly-named Caves Road also offers striking sceneries with its body of water reflecting off the cave’s magnificent centuries-old stalactites and stalagmites, topped off with colourful artificial lights which will definitely dazzle you.
The Amazing Maze
Unleash your inner child and take on Amaze’n, Margaret River’s signature maze. Explore the maze, try your best not to get lost, and participate in a number of interesting challenges throughout. As soon as you reach the centre, you’ll be rewarded with a tower that gives you a great view of the whole area. There’s also an 18-hole mini golf course with five hectares of gardens full of native Australian flora, and a cafe to unwind with a cup of coffee.
Looming at Cape Leeuwin
For spectacular sceneries as well as interesting history, Cape Leeuwin is a must-visit when you’re in Margaret River. The area is the southwestern most point of the Australian continent and where the Indian and Great Southern Oceans meet – expect to see crashing waves as the colours of the two oceans blend together! The main attraction is the Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, built in the late 19th century and open for the public. Get to the top of the lighthouse for only $12, and reward yourself with the spectacular views of the ocean.
How To Get There And Where To Stay
Margaret River is only a three to four-hour drive from Perth, so most tourists take their own vehicles. Alternatively there are also tour companies providing coach trips to Margaret River and back, bringing visitors to the area’s well-known tourist attractions. Accommodations are available throughout the area – especially near tourist attractions – from hostels ($30 – $40 per night) and apartments ($160 – $250 per night), to luxury hotels ($185 – $300 per night).
