Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 3,515 reviews
Visit Western Australia's top tourist attraction! Enjoy breathtaking views above and below the Indian Ocean from the Busselton Jetty – the longest tourist jetty in the Southern Hemisphere and second longest in the world! Spanning over 1.8kms (over a mile long), the Jetty is home to one of only six Underwater Observatories in the world. Ride the electric Jetty Train along the length of the Jetty, with 360 degree views across the ocean, and take a tour of the Underwater Observatory at the end. Experienced guides lead you through the natural wonders that lie beneath the Jetty where its piles create Australia’s greatest artificial reef, host to an awe inspiring forest of vividly-coloured tropical and sub-tropical corals and fish. Descend 8 metres beneath the water’s surface to view more than 300 different marine species in their natural habitat. Walking, photography, swimming, snorkelling and diving are all popular and be sure to visit the free interactive Museum and Gift shop.

Awesome coffee, staff were friendly and engaging, gave us a spiel on the effects with the Covid restrictions.
3. Wonnerup

4.5 based on 13 reviews
Nestled between a majestic Tuart forest and the Vasse Estuary wetlands, the peaceful, almost romantic setting of Wonnerup belies a more difficult and turbulent past. The house, school and ancillary buildings are a powerful reminder of the isolation, danger and struggles faced by the Layman family during its 120 year occupation of Wonnerup.

This was a happenchance stop, while my friend had a facial in Dunsborough. The opshop was open, bright and cheery volunteers and I picked up some bits and pieces. But what was really nice, was that I got to chat to local people, discuss the township and where it was heading. Also found someone who had come from my hometown on the other side of Australia-always the case for sure! A great respite for a tired traveller.
5. Historic Moreton Bay Fig tree
Overall Ratings

The historic Moreton Bay fig tree was planted in 1896. (There is some debate whether it was actually originally 4 trees that merged over time. The tree is iconic and has heritage protection. Next to the Moreton bay fig trees are 2 Norfolk pines which are the tallest in Busselton. The rose garden has 69 varieties. The historic building -Ithaca was built. in 1896 and welcomes guests to stay.

This statue of a woman with a full belly is titled Fish. She stands to the side of the Busselton Jetty. My interpretation is that she enjoyed too many fish that can be seen jumping out of the water.

Sorry, I didn't go to church here, but I noticed they have programs to help people in need, so by supporting the op shop( on numerous occasion) I'm also contributing. The op shop is phenomenal, with their selection, charges and friendliness. I've found the well known op shops are now out pricing themselves and these people really are trying to help all. Out the back they have a shed with $1 clothes and they keep selling stock at this price , making room for more stock. Thanks everyone, miss it now we've travelled on.

This place is amazing, the owner is very friendly. Free paddle boat ride, free bumper car session, free merry go round for kids and huge kids and adult jumping castle. There is a big indoor playground for kids and the farm has loads of animals and places to have a picnic with your family. You get a free tub of food to feed animals. Definitely worth the entry fee.

We went on a guided tour of the lighthouse , we had a great guide for the 45 min tour to the top which was very informative and delivered great views . An easy climb as the lighthouse is short, loads of interesting stories from its history and views towards sugarloaf rock.
