Introducing Western Australia
Western Australia (WA) is often labelled the last frontier, and with its immense dimensions, meagre population and Perth’s distinction as the world’s most isolated capital city, perhaps it’s true. If so, it certainly is a spectacular finale to what the planet has to offer.
‘Up north’, you’ll encounter shrewdly concealed gorges and waterfalls and the enigmatic pearling town of Broome, with its flaming red sunsets on Cable Beach. The south is a playground of beaches, expanses of wildflowers and lush green forests that teem with life.
