Australia (Perth)
Western Australia has a little bit of everything – from a vibrant city that offers nightclubs, pubs, cafes and eateries, to nature that is easily accessible on a self-drive itinerary. We checked out Fremantle and the broader Swan Valley Region… and even went further south to Albany!
At-A-Glance
This was our first self-driving trip out as new parents – and our little Bean had no choice but to be our experiment. On this trip, she found her teeth and bit into munchy sticks. On this trip, we also pushed our limits and found ways to breastfeed in the wild and change diapers as we balanced her on some rock. It was a wonderful adventure of learnings and discovery!
Main Highlights
Perth City: Too many highlights in the city – but we couldn’t miss the iconic Fremantle and its oceanside vibe, or to introduce our little Bean to kangeroos and sheep at Caversham Wildlife Park
Busselton: At 1841 metres, the Busselton Jetty is said to be the longest wooden structure in the southern hemisphere. We hopped on a little chug-a-long and our little Bean was entertained beyond words
Margaret River: Famous for its vineyards but we didn’t visit a single one – instead, we checked out a lighthouse, a chocolate factory, an ice cream parlour and lots of other Willy Wonka worthy highlights
Albany: Albany is a quiet town south of our roadtrip. On the way, we checked out Greens Pool, a sheltered natural swimming pool of clear emerald water and Elephant Rocks, which were massive, rounded boulders set off the shallow waters of a small cove. We also went on our first family hike at Porongurup National Park
