The Margaret River Wine Region, which extends westward from Busselton
in the north to Augusta in the south, is just 250 kilometres south
west of Perth. Whilst this picturesque region is literally on the
doorstep of Western Australia's capital city, it is a world away
from the hectic hustle and bustle of city life. A holiday Down South
is truly the perfect escape!
Those on a self-drive itinerary will enjoy the
comfortable 2.5 - 3 hour drive south west from Perth via excellent
sealed highways.
CHARTER flights are also available
into both Busselton and Margaret River and are operated from Perth
by Air Australia & The Aeroplane Company. For bookings, contact
Air Australia on (08) 9332 5011 or The Aeroplane Company on (08)
9417 9088.
Please be aware that the air service is a CHARTER
service. It will only run if people have previously booked and paid
for their flight.
Airport taxis and connecting transportation can
be arranged.
There are also daily coach and/or rail services
from Perth to all towns within the Region.
