We travel south from Perth driving through farmland with grazing cattle and passing by coastal towns. Arriving at Busselton, known as the gateway to the Margaret River Region we stop for morning tea (own expense) at the iconic Busselton Jetty, the longest timber jetty in the southern hemisphere. (please note there is not enough time at this stop to walk the full length of the jetty).
Driving into the heart of the region, we head to one of Margaret River’s boutique breweries for lunch (venue may change due to force majeure) with complimentary beer and cider tastings. Before lunch, we sample some local wines.
Next it’s on to Mammoth Cave for a guided tour through this gothic cave with vast chambers that reveal fascinating information on the region’s flora and fauna. Continuing south, through the Boranup Forest of enormous Karri Trees, we reach the most fascinating part of the region at Augusta. Here at Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, marvel at the dividing point between the Southern and Indian oceans, a rare phenomenon to view the meetings of the two Oceans.
Then we head north up to the township of Margaret River for a brief stop to stroll the main street. After a long but fantastic day giving you a full taste of this wonderful region, it’s back to Perth with an en route comfort stop arriving at approximately 8:30pm.
