Drive to surf breaks, vineyards, and forest hikes at the gateway to the Margaret River.
Whether you’re hopping between surf beaches, wine tasting in the Margaret River wine region, or taking a whale-watching cruise around Geographe Bay, Dunsborough is brimming with outdoor adventures. As well as being surrounded by sandy shores and hiking and mountain biking trails, the coastal town is an ideal starting point for a road trip along Western Australia’s southwest coast, stopping to walk parts of the Cape to Cape trail, discover natural caves, and cool off at pristine beaches. Campers have plenty of options, too. Park your caravan at a rural Hipcamp or farm stay in the heart of wine country, or take your pick of bush campgrounds at Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park, one of the best places to admire Western Australia’s famous spring wildflowers. Alternatively, check into a tourist park or holiday park, where you’ll be assured a powered site and family-friendly facilities such as a camp kitchen, swimming pool, or games room.
