Extract from the Perth Travel Guides:
Try as you might, and contrary to expectations, it's hard to get excited about

| To Stay : Livin' the life in Perth |
|
| If you make it to Oz do not forget about Western Australia.. most people tend to stick to the east coast and jump on a plane back home without seeing the greatest part of oz!!! Livin' the life in perth.. one of the greatest cities to spend a few days, a few months a few years!! & if it were not sooo far away, I would spend the rest of my days there. It beats the hell out of the more populated east coast and it's rival Sydney. Stay at the Billabong Resort for peanuts.. check out the great nightlife, hop on the train to cottesloe on sunday for their "sunday sesh" where loads of people party on the beach. rent a boat on Perth's Swan River.. spend some time in fremantle... and don't miss Rottnest Island. Go Go before this secret gem gets found out.. it won't be the same after! |

| Most people cycle around Rottnest. It's pretty annoying but you are told to wear the helmet that comes with the hired bike. They reckon if caught the cops will fine anyone not wearing one but I didn't see any cops. |

| To Do And See : Rottnest |
|
| Don't miss Rottnest Island which is a short ferry ride or an even shorter and pretty cheap Cessna flight from Freemantle. You can still find deserted areas for snorkelling and sunbathing. |
