Educational experiences in science, art and culture come alive in Australia’s fourth largest city.
Perth offers a smorgasbord of nature and wildlife experiences, from beautiful nature parks and reserves to unique wildlife encounters and world-class walking trails. There is just so much to examine and explore, here are our top picks.
Penguin Island
Penguin Island is easily one of Western Australia’s favourite destinations, home to an array of friendly animals such as the sea lions, dolphins and approximately 1,200 penguins. During an exhilarating ride onboard the adventure cruise, you will get a chance to observe the wild dolphins and other friendly inhabitants. Elsewhere on the island, a wildlife sanctuary zone was built to nest seabirds amidst white sandy beaches, limestone reefs and seagrass meadows – ideal for snorkelers and nature lovers to delve into. Do note that the island is only open from 15 September to early June (Western Australia Day Public Holiday), subject to weather conditions. The best time to visit will probably be the summer seasons, where little penguins stay ashore for six to eight weeks to grow their new feathers.
