Flights to Perth

Paradise in Perth!

Return Economy airfares from London Heathrow to Perth start at £765*

Western Australia is Australia's largest state, where 12,500km of pristine white beaches contrast with the deep red of ancient rock formations and the lush greenery of the stunning southern regions.

It is a nature lovers' paradise where you can dive with the world's largest fish - the whale shark - or snorkel with manta rays at Ningaloo Reef, swim with wild dolphins, walk among the tree tops along the southwest coast or explore the beehive-like formations of the Bungle Bungles with the help of an Aboriginal guide. Its capital, Perth, is four hours closer to the UK than Sydney and the sunniest city in Australia.

Must do's in Perth and Western Australia

Scarborough Beach, Perth

Discover the ancient history of one of the world's biggest inner city parks
King's Park is so much more than a park. As well as being one of the largest inner city gardens in the world, it's also one of the most diverse; acres of wild bushland sit next to manicured lawns and exotic botanic gardens. Visitors can meander between a tree-top walk, one of Perth's finest restaurants and a relaxed outdoor cinema.

Visit the city of 19 beaches - Perth
Australia's sunniest state capital. Within the Perth metropolitan area there are a remarkable 19 beaches. The city's most iconic and fashionable beach is Cottesloe, with its slew of bars and restaurants making it a favourite hang-out of Perth's buff-bodied and well-heeled. Trigg Beach, north of the city, is the number one spot for surfing while more tranquil swimming is available at nearby Mettams Pool, a sheltered bay ideal for mums, dads and bucket-and-spade enthusiasts of all ages. Other beach destinations include City Beach, Scarborough, Sorrento, and Fremantle's Port Beach. Whichever you choose, be sure to stick around until dusk and watch the sun melt silently into the Indian Ocean - a light show you'll never forget.

Pinnacles, Western Australia

Take a trip to the moon (in your hire car)
The Pinnacles Desert might only be 270km north of Perth but it feels like another planet (guidebooks are fond of describing it as a 'moonscape on earth'). Sunrise and sunset are considered the best times visit, but whatever time you arrive you'll be glad you did!

Cycle on a car-free island paradise
West Australians have been using Rottnest Island ('Rotto' for short) as a recreation destination since the early 1900s. It's now one of the state's most iconic locations, annually attracting close to 500,000 visitors to enjoy its picturesque scenery, marine life and unspoilt bays and beaches.

Ride a camel into the sunset
Egypt may have cornered the market on pyramids but Australia, believe it or not, is home to the world's largest population of wild camels. In WA these 'ships of the desert' roam the outback in herds up to 100-strong. A sunset ride along Cable Beach is frequently listed among the world's top ten by travel writers, plus the 22km beach is famous for its white sands, turquoise waters and 'staircase to the moon' (a naturally occurring column of iridescent colours created by the moon's reflection on the sand).
