Busselton Jetty

We had an enjoyable trip to Perth this year, where we took a few day trips. Let's start with our 2 day Margaret River Wine Tour and Food Lovers Experience. We packed our bag for 1 night day at Margaret River region. Had to "park" our luggage at a convenience store with rental charge for the day we were out of Perth. 
We travelled south from Perth driving through farmland with grazing cattle and passing by the coastal towns. Arriving at Busselton, known as the gateway to the Margaret River Region, we stopped only for 30 minutes for morning tea at our own expense to view the iconic Busselton Jetty.

Busselton Jetty is the longest timber jetty in the Southern Hemisphere at 1,841 metres long. We did not have enough time to walk the full length of the jetty. 


The jetty features a rail line along its length, a relic of the railway line into Busselton from Bunbury. The line now carries tourists along the jetty to an underwater observatory, one of only six natural aquariums in the world, which opened to the public in 2003.
Such tranquility
