Short trip to Western Australia

Ready to squeeze out max adventure from WA in just 4 days? 🌊🏞️ I crammed Olzheim, Coodanup, Halls Head, Busselton, Mandurah, Byford & Perth CBD—all the scenery angles, two cities’ vibes, quirky Giants, and local wildlife. Fast but epic! Top Spots to Visit: 1. Giants of Mandurah (Yaburgurt Winjan Cirkelstone), 30 Peel Parade, Coodanup—search out this massive wooden sculpture lying among trees and grass. Pro tip: Go early before the crowds for serene pics, especially on sunny mornings! 2. Giants of Mandurah (Santi Ikto), Koolyininap, Halls Head—year-round, all-day access. Pack comfy shoes: artistic eco-trail + nature immersion. 3. Busselton Jetty, 17 Foreshore Parade, Busselton—iconic “longest timber-piled jetty” in SH, open daily. The sea views are insane. Admission is $68, so book in advance via trip.com if you want to save time! 4. Busselton Foreshore—chill spot for sunset vibes, perfect after jetty stroll. Grab a takeaway coffee! 5. Mandurah Boardwalk, 73 Mandurah Terrace—river, lakes & ponds, plus Western-style architecture equals ultimate outdoor cultural moment. 6. Cohunu Koala Park, 68 Nettleton Rd, Byford—get up close with koalas and snap a close-up with other native critters. 7. Subiaco Theatre Gardens, Perth—unwind in fresh air, flowers & modern art. Perfect city park to end a busy trip. Getting Around: Use local Transperth trains & buses—super easy, just download a mobile ticket. For quick hops (like Mandurah-Jetty-Byford), rideshare makes sense if pressed for time. Food: Try Busselton’s seaside cafes (don’t skip Aussie pies), and Mandurah’s riverside fish’n’chips for classic WA taste. Extra Tip: The climate’s mostly sunny—light layers and a sunhat are wise. Tap-and-pay works everywhere, but some cafes prefer contactless only. #visitwa #giantsofmandurah #busseltonjetty #naturevision #tripdotcom

Exploring Busselton? You’re in for epic coastal vibes and some seriously Insta-worthy moments! 🌊✨ Don’t skip the Busselton Jetty – riding the jetty train here is a total must-do if you visit. It’s the longest timber-piled jetty in the southern hemisphere and that classic blue building (yup, the one with “BUSSELTON JETTY” on it) is a perfect photo op for your sunny day out. Top Spots to Visit in Busselton: 1. Busselton Jetty (17 Foreshore Parade, Busselton WA 6280 – open all day, entry $68.0): Stroll the jetty or hop on the historic train for amazing shoreline and ocean views. Don’t forget to snap that iconic jetty sign! 2. Busselton Foreshore (Queen St, Busselton WA 6280): Chill by the water, grab a gelato and soak in some local culture. This foreshore area is ideal for families, couples, or even solo travelers wanting to unwind. 3. The Goose (15 Foreshore Parade, Busselton WA 6280): Whether you want brunch, drinks, or a sunset dinner, The Goose gets rave reviews for beachfront eats. Try the local seafood if you get the chance! PRO TIP: The jetty train is super fun for all ages and keeps you out of the sun if it’s blazing. Book tickets early, especially in peak season. Getting Around: Park near Queen St or Foreshore Parade for easy access to all these spots. Busselton is super walkable, so you can explore everything on foot. Travel Tips: Carry sunblock, BYO water, and bring along your camera (the outdoor scenery here is top-tier). Most cafes accept card but bring a bit of cash just in case. #BusseltonJetty #WesternAustralia #TravelTips #CoastalEscape #Tripcom
