Things to do

Perth spreads along the Swan River, with the city towers facing Kings Park across the water. It is a spacious, sunny place: trains link the centre with Fremantle and the beaches, and free CAT buses loop through the districts.

Kings Park

Climb into Kings Park by the steps above Elizabeth Quay and walk through the botanic garden. The lookout shows the towers and the river; return through the park to the centre.

Rottnest Island

The ferry from Barrack Street jetty reaches Rottnest Island in about ninety minutes. Hire a bike to ride between the white-sand bays and take a late ferry back. Quokkas live there and nowhere else.

Cottesloe and Fremantle

The train reaches Fremantle in half an hour: walk the port streets and the market. On the way back get off at Cottesloe and swim at the town beach. Cottesloe has a long ocean promenade.

Where to stay

City centre

The centre suits a short visit, with Elizabeth Quay, the station and Kings Park close together. The office district empties in the evening, so head to Northbridge for dinner. Northbridge is fifteen minutes on foot.

Northbridge

Northbridge works for restaurants, bars and Asian cooking. The centre is ten minutes on foot, nights are noisy, and the hotels are plain. Cross the footbridge to reach the station and centre.

Fremantle

Fremantle sits at the mouth of the Swan, with a port, a market and old warehouses. It suits quiet days by the water, though the train to the centre takes half an hour.

Getting to and around Perth

Perth airport connects to the centre on the Airport Line, with trains reaching Perth station in about twenty minutes. Transperth trains are the main way around and run to Fremantle and the beaches, while free CAT buses loop through the centre. A car is worth hiring only for longer trips, such as the wine regions to the south.

Three days in Perth

Centre and Kings Park

Rottnest

Fremantle and Cottesloe

Look round Fremantle's port and market, then take the train to Cottesloe. After a swim, return to the city and walk the Swan riverfront. Lunch at a café by the beach in Cottesloe.
