Things to do in Western Australia

Where to go in Western Australia?

If you feel a bit overwhelmed by trying to grasp how to explore Western Australia and figure out exactly where to go, that is completely understandable! Western Australia is, to put it simply, huge. It’s 2.646 million square kilometers to be exact, and within that there are so many amazing destinations and hidden gems you should know about.

At Adrenaline, we have experiences available all across Western Australia (and the whole country), from the capital city of Perth, to Margaret River, Rockingham, Rottnest Island, Barbagallo and plenty more. We can help you map out where to go and what to do, so you make the most of what WA has to offer. 

Most popular destinations are clustered along the west coast, so there are lots of opportunities to see the pristine white sand beaches that WA is famous for! As Western Australia’s capital, Perth is a unique city with a lot of things to do. That could be a wildlife adventure like swimming with dolphins, a family friendly thrill like iFLY indoor skydiving, adrenaline-rush inducing driving experiences, or anything else from our huge range of Perth activities.

From Perth, you can visit other amazing destinations like Rottnest Island, Fremantle and Margaret River. Rottnest Island is a must-see for its lush natural landscape and population of adorable quokkas, and you can find everything from Rottnest Island ferry transfers to seaplane tours, skydiving, cruises, kayaking and walking tours here at Adrenaline. 

Margaret River is the perfect destination for wine and nature lovers, and at Adrenaline you can browse plenty of Margaret River experiences suited to different interests. Some of them even take you to and from Perth by seaplane! 

Heading north, there is a strip known as the ‘Turquoise Coast’ and you can see all the highlights in one of the epic tours we have on site. We have tours for all kinds of activities in these destinations, from sand boarding to swimming with whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef. Then there’s trips to the Pinnacles Desert, lobster farms, and many more. If you’re looking for an adventure and a way to see Western Australia’s coastline, you’re in the right place. 

The landscapes in Western Australia are seriously stunning, and there’s no shortage of fun to be had. So wherever you decide to go, pack it full of excitement with our Adrenaline range of experiences. 

When is the best time to visit Western Australia?

The good thing about Western Australia is that its size means there’s something to do in every season. The climate is very diverse from the Mediterranean southern region to the tropical north, so you just need to pick the right time of year for your destination of choice. Wherever you’re headed, rest assured you’ll find plenty of exciting things to do there here at Adrenaline.

Wondering what time of year is best to visit Western Australia?  South of WA enjoys the best weather during the summer months from November through to March, but the north of WA is best during the dry season months between May and October. It rains more in the middle of the year below the Tropic of Capricorn, whereas the opposite occurs above it as it is wet season during summer. 

So choose wisely, but remember that you’ll be able to have a great time no matter what time of year it is!

Best things to do in WA

As Australia’s largest state (by far), the countless destinations worth visiting also mean that the number of amazing things to do can feel overwhelming. So to help guide you, we’ve rounded up some of our most popular experiences in Western Australia. Hopefully our Adrenaline best-sellers can inspire you to fill your time with fun and adventure!

• Swim with dolphins: In Rockingham near Perth you can get up close and personal with marine life on a swimming with dolphins cruise. You’ll put on a wetsuit and jump into the water to play with wild dolphins in their natural habitat. It’s an exciting experience to tick off your bucket list!

• Skydiving: Take the ultimate leap and enjoy the extreme adrenaline rush of skydiving. There are heaps of incredible drop zones that will give you views over Western Australia’s most spectacular natural scenery. Jump over Rockingham Beach, or Rottnest Island, or check out our entire range of WA skydives and book in to take the plunge.

• Indoor skydiving: If you want to experience the adrenaline rush of skydiving without actually jumping out of a plane, you can! Indoor skydiving at iFLY uses a glass wind tunnel to emulate the feeling of freefall, so you can get inside and fly for the equivalent of a skydive jump from over 10,000 feet. This is the perfect activity for the whole family, as little kids can indoor skydive too!

• Rottnest Island: You can easily head over to experience one of the most popular places in Western Australia, with ferry transfers available from Perth and Fremantle. Or you can be a bit more adventurous and travel by seaplane! Or why not book in a walking tour of the island? Exploring Rottnest Island is definitely a not-to-miss on your Western Australia itinerary. 

• Driving experiences: Adrenaline is your one stop shop for every kind of driving experience imaginable in Australia, and there are a bunch of great options in WA for any thrill-seekers or petrol heads. You might want to feel the adrenaline rush of driving a V8 race car around a real track, experience the excitement of drifting, or just jump in the passenger seat for hot laps with a pro at the wheel. The options are endless and the thrills are unforgettable.
