At the heart of it is the attractive capital city of Perth, home to three-quarters of the entire state\u2019s small 2.3 million population. Beyond Perth, the vast isolated lands dazzle with desert landscapes, verdant forests, steep canyons and gold-mining towns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Much of the state\u2019s draw sits on its western coast, making it very isolated from the rest of the country. Perth, the capital itself, is one of the most isolated capital cities in the world, sitting closer to the Indonesian island of Bali than it is to Sydney. With this isolation comes a strong sense of identity that many locals proudly associate themselves with.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The striking mix of Outback wilderness and secluded beaches means this state is attracting an increasing number of travellers who are keen to break away from the crowds that accumulate in the east of Australia. Western Australia is also one of the few states where Aboriginal cultures are visibly present, opening you up to a wealth and breadth of new experiences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Embark on a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/western-australia-tours\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Western Australia tour<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and you\u2019ll be guaranteed to be one of few campers stargazing in Nambung National Park, lounging on the white-sand coves and encountering stunning gorges and mesmerising waterfalls. There\u2019s abundant beauty in choosing to explore the less travelled destinations like Western Australia!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Best Time for Western Australia Travel<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The beauty of Western Australia is that you can always find summer somewhere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being as large as it is, Western Australia has several types of climate. Most of the state is arid and dry, but the south-west enjoys a Mediterranean climate with winter rainfall and four distinct seasons. Desert covers the east and tropical conditions are what you\u2019ll find in the north.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mostly sunny climate has resulted in Western Australia being high on the list of the world\u2019s best biodiversity hotspots. Because of this, Western Australia can confidently claim to be a year-round destination; something few destinations can boast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The perfect time for a Western Australia trip, therefore largely depends on where you\u2019d like to travel. If you are planning to visit the South (below the Tropic of Capricorn), then the best time is between November and March when rainfall is low, and temperatures are high. For the north, the best time to visit is between May and October, during the dry season when temperatures are mild.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a Perth tour, the summer is the best as it is one of the few places in the state that enjoys an ocean breeze, bringing relief to the heat-stricken state.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1509035681059{background-color: #f2f2f2 !important;border-radius: 5px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1509350069266{margin-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;post-cta&#8221;]<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Don&#8217;t Miss Our Exclusive Offers!
