Discover the Wild Luxury of Western Australia
When most travelers think of Australia, the east coast usually takes center stage. But if you’re craving something different, something more rugged, more refined, and far less crowded, Western Australia is calling. With sweeping landscapes, world-class wine, and incredible marine life, this side of the country is all about upscale adventure and hidden gems.
Western Australia blends untamed beauty with polished comfort. In the south, the Margaret River region delivers the perfect balance of indulgence and nature. Boutique wineries, chef-driven restaurants, and dramatic coastlines set the tone, while luxury lodges and uncrowded beaches invite travelers to slow down and truly take it all in. Whether you're sipping a bold red at a cliffside vineyard or hiking through eucalyptus forests, the experience is unforgettable.
Perth surprises many visitors with its cool, cosmopolitan vibe. High-end hotels, a buzzing food scene, and sunny beach culture make it an ideal launch point for your West Coast journey. Just offshore, Rottnest Island offers postcard-worthy views and the chance to meet the famously photogenic quokkas. Perth is a destination in its own right, but also a gateway to what lies beyond.
Further north, Ningaloo Reef delivers one of the most breathtaking marine experiences in the country. Unlike the Great Barrier Reef, Ningaloo is often quieter and more accessible. You can snorkel among coral gardens right from the shore or swim alongside gentle whale sharks during migration season. It’s nature at its most vibrant, and you won’t have to share it with the crowds.
For those drawn to remote adventure paired with luxurious comfort, Seabourn Cruises offers extraordinary itineraries that explore the Kimberley region of Western Australia. This dramatic and untouched corner of the country features ancient gorges, Aboriginal rock art, and wildlife encounters found nowhere else. A Seabourn expedition brings it all to life with expert guides, scenic cruising, and the refined touches you expect from one of the world’s top luxury cruise lines.
Western Australia also makes an ideal pre- or post-cruise destination. Spending a few extra days, or even a week, gives you the chance to explore these distinctive landscapes more deeply while enjoying the comfort and ease of a well-planned journey.
