Perth: The Ultimate Family Escape
G’day! Perth is a ripper choice for families because it’s got the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Where else can you spend the morning at a water park, the afternoon spotting kangaroos or dolphins, and finish the day with fish & chips while watching a golden sunset on the beach?
More Space, More Sunshine, More Fun
It’s safe, easy to get around, packed with family-friendly attractions, and the weather is a winner almost all year round. From Kings Park’s giant playgrounds to Outback Splash, Caversham Wildlife Park, and Rottnest Island with its cheeky quokkas, Perth offers something exciting for every age group — without the crowds you’ll find in bigger Aussie cities. In short: more space, more sunshine, more fun — the perfect recipe for a stress-free family escape.

With young kids, Perth is packed full of fun! Families can: Splash & Play at Outback Splash or local water playgrounds. Meet Animals up close at Caversham Wildlife Park, Perth Zoo, or spot wild kangaroos at Yanchep. Explore Nature with easy walks at Kings Park’s huge play areas or picnic by the Swan River. Island Adventures on Rottnest — cycling, beaches, and a selfie with the famous quokkas.
