Perth, basking under Australia’s west coast sun, is a unique gem waiting to be explored. Often overshadowed by its eastern cousins, Perth offers a compelling blend of urban vibrancy, natural wonders, and a relaxed pace – perfect for those seeking an off-the-beaten-path adventure. Here’s why Perth should be your next travel destination:
A Mediterranean Climate Down-Under
Unlike other parts of Australia, Perth is blessed with year-round sunshine, with only mild winter months. Enjoy warm, sunny days for most of the year, making it an ideal coastal escape from harsh winters or scorching summers.
Peace & Quiet
As the world’s most isolated big city, Perth’s small population and fewer crowds translate to a laid-back atmosphere, and a slower pace of life. Immerse yourself in its serenity and enjoy the city without feeling overwhelmed.
Colossal Botanical Gardens and Trees
Even in the midst of the city, the numerous parks and pockets of greenery create a haven for nature enthusiasts. Only minutes away from Pan Pacific Perth, explore Kings Park, one of the largest inner-city parks globally, boasting stunning botanical gardens and panoramic city views. Delve into the rich Aboriginal heritage by the Gija Julumbu, a culturally significant Boab tree, which has travelled from across the country on one of the longest-known land journeys of a living tree of its enormous size.
The Otherworldly Beauty of Perth’s Nearby National Parks
Venture beyond the city and the metropolitan hotels in Perth Australia, to discover the captivating beauty of Western Australia’s national parks. The Pinnacles Desert, with its otherworldly limestone formations, is a photographer’s dream. Explore the ancient rock formations and gorges of Karijini National Park, or hike amidst the wildflowers of Nambung National Park.
Outback Star-gazing
Perth’s minimal light pollution makes it a prime stargazing destination. Escape the city lights and head to the deserts or Yanchep National Park to witness a breathtaking display of celestial wonders. Join a stargazing tour and learn about the constellations that illuminate the vast Australian night sky.
