BUSSELTON HIGHLIGHTS
Busselton’s city precinct and foreshore offers the perfect fusion of coastal and city life. Spend the morning perusing quality shops, cafes and pubs along Queen Street, then, find perfect views of the famous jetty and of breaching whales along the foreshore where playgrounds, skateparks, and eateries abound.
Busselton Jetty: Built in 1865, the Busselton Jetty has always been the centre of activity in this vibrant beach town. Along its 1.8 kilometre timber piling and in the waters beneath, locals and holiday-makers alike walk, fish, swim and snorkel.
Crafty Pints: Busselton is the unoffcial home of craft beer in the south west, with urban, seaside and bush-block breweries - all of which welcome the whole family - offering up a taste of the region’s best.
Free Events: The event capital of Western Australia, Busselton has a calendar packed full of arts, cultural and sporting events. Don’t miss the Festival of Busselton, the Busselton Jetty Swim and the South West Craft Beer Fest this summer!
ArtGeo Cultural Complex: This is where Busselton’s art and heritage meet; experience historical tours, witness working artists’ studios and wander galleries and exhibitions.
Geographe Bay: The seclusion and safety of Geographe Bay defines holidays in Busselton. From exploring rock pools and sand-castlemaking, to long walks with the dog. Fishing, crabbing and boating are shared through the generations. And if you don’t catch anything, there’s always fish and chips on the foreshore!
Eating Out: Busselton’s cuisine is a constantly evolving smorgasbord of distinctly local flavours. From the delicious tasting bars, street food vendors and take-home meals at Origins Market, to soul warming cafes and brew-pubs, there is a sumptuous mix of options to choose from.
