Discover Margaret River

World-class Wine and Wine Tour Holidays Await You on Asia’s Doorstep

Whether you are a budding wine aficionado, a nascent gourmet or simply a holiday-maker in search of an alternative experience, the time is right to discover the myriad of delights that is Australia’s beautiful and bountiful Margaret River.

You may already know the name. Award-winning Margaret River wines now grace an increasing number of cellars, shelves and dinner tables across Asia and around the world (see Margaret River Wine). But you might not be aware that the Margaret River Wine Region (that’s the official name) is quickly becoming a mecca for wine tourists of every taste and level of experience and expertise (see Wine So Divine).

Here are some reasons why:

• Located just 280 km southwest of Perth, the Margaret River Wine Region (to be delineated from the town and the river that share its name) occupies a unique and remarkable stretch of land jutting into the Indian Ocean in Western Australia’s sumptuous Southwest (see Getting There).
• The region is bounded by Cape Naturaliste in the north and Cape Leeuwin in the south (thus the Cape-to-Cape nickname) (see Map). In between lay a stunning coastline, towering karri and jarrah forests, ancient limestone caves, green hills, rolling farmland, olive groves, vineyards, cellar doors, restaurants, al-fresco dining (see Food Fantastic), resorts, retreats, bed-and-breakfast hideaways (see Getting There) and so very much more.
• Artists and galleries abound in the region (see Shopping Arts), as do a host of colourful festivals and events (see Festivals and Events).
• There are of water and dry-land sports (see Life is a Ball) of every kind, including world-class surf curls, as well as hiking trails, national parks and wale-watching (see Back to Nature) to ensure each and every member of your family remains fully occupied (see Family Funtime).
• The climate is Mediterranean-Maritime, meaning the summers are mainly sunny and dry (see Getting There) and the people are equally warm and inviting, offering up that delectable mix of sophistication and small town charm that is quickly becoming a Margaret River trademark.
• Add to all this the fact that Margaret River remains mostly undiscovered outside of Australia and you have a genuine holiday treasure within easy reach of Asia’s major hubs.
