SPRING IS HERE! 🌸☀️🇦🇺
The days are getting longer, the weather’s warming up and Perth is officially entering one of the BEST times of the year. 🙌🏼
Here are 5 things to add to your spring calendar 👇🏼
🌷 Araluen Tulip Festival
Perth’s ultimate spring tradition! Wander through thousands of colourful tulips and spring blooms, with food, live music, markets and plenty of photo opportunities.
📍 Araluen Botanic Park
🐋 Whale Watching
Humpback season is HERE! Spring is prime time to spot whales making their way along the WA coast — and you can head out on whale-watching experiences right here from Rockingham.
📍 Rockingham coastlines
(P.s, huge credit to A N D R E W F R E N C H for the stunning drone footage of the humpback whale currently hanging out in Rockingham & surrounds. Give him a follow🙏🏼)
🎡 Perth Royal Show
Showbags, rides, animals, food, entertainment and fireworks — you already know the drill! A proper Perth spring staple.
📅 26 Sept – 3 Oct
📍 Claremont Showgrounds
🍻 Long Point Brewing Co.
Sunshine, cold beers, good food and Kennedy Bay sunsets… Long Point in spring just makes sense. 🌅 Grab a table, settle in and make an afternoon of it.
📍 Port Kennedy
🐧 Penguin Island
One of Rockingham’s most iconic nature spots! Think white sandy beaches, swimming, snorkelling and coastal walks, with the chance to experience some of Shoalwater Islands Marine Park’s incredible wildlife — from little penguins and dolphins to sea lions and seabirds.
📍 Shoalwater
📅 Island season returns from 15 October, subject to access and conditions.
