Hiking in Naturaliste Park, Margaret River
Hiking in Naturaliste Park is fun and relaxing and the view is majestic. Recommended to drive there instead of going with tour so you have more time to explore and is about 3 hours from Perth city. You can oversee the ocean from the top as well as walking distance to Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse. Just be careful as the road could be quite rocky with many branches and best to walk in pair. Occasionally you might see one or two kangaroos hopping by. #hiking #margaretriver
❤️coffee at Yahava KoffeeWorks❤️

we took a tour of the roastery and café, where we learnt about the history and process of coffee roasting, sample different blends, and purchase beans to take home.
it is a popular destination for coffee lovers, and the café provides an ideal location to relax, unwind, and sample some of the best coffee blends in Western Australia.

Western Australia Road Trip (2/4)
This time we went south!
destinations:
pic 2&3: The Big Orange
pic 4-7: Busselton jetty
pic 8-9: Canal rocks
pic 10-12: Quinninup falls
pic 13,14: Jewel cave
pic 15, 16, 17: Cape Lewin light house > Hamlin bay > Margret river chocolate factory.
The trip was made around September, the winter period of Australia. This was a 3D2N trip due to time constraints from our study schedule but overall still enjoyable.
Our first stop was the big orange where we get to see many orange plantations as well as taste some of the orange infused chocolate that the place sold. We can go up to the tower as well.
Our second stop was Busselton Jetty. Admission to the jetty cost about $5 and it’s a pretty long walk to the end. When you reach the end, it feels surreal because you’re so far out into the ocean. On that day we were caught in the rain because there was no way we could run 1 km back to where our car war since we are so far out the ocean 🤣🤣🤣. THANK god there was this small souvenir shop which we hid in.
our third stop was canal rocks and we were so lucky to be able to see and walk across the bridge before it got destroyed by the way is a few months later… It was the most beautiful sight of mother nature.
after that was a hike to a waterfall. We went through bush areas and once we emerge from the dense plantations, we were greeted with wild Wallabies prancing around in the fields and also wide open areas that just makes a person feel free. REFRESHING!!!
The fourth destination was Jewel Cave. There are actually a lot of caves around the area but we chose jewel cave because it was the most convenient to go to. This is a guided tour about an hour where the guide brings you around the cave and out.
The fifth and sixth destination was towards the end of our second day. in the morning we went to the Lighthouse and we got to go up to the Lighthouse and experience the strength of winds up to 150km/h!!! it also offered a stunning view of the coast! after that, we decided to catch the sunset by the beach. We heard that we could see stingrays at Hamelin Bay so we went. But the currents were a bit too strong by the time we arrived.
On our final day, we checked out and headed to the chocolate factory. The most famous chocolate factory in the Margaret River region, the Margaret River chocolate factory. They offer free samples as well as a wide variety of chocolate with insane flavours infused in them. I bought a few bars, took a few samples… Maybe more than a few… And we went back to campus.
overall, the trip was enjoyable. But regrettably we only had a short period of time to do a lot of activities. A lot of driving was involved and that’s the time was lost. But would definitely go again!

The Margaret River is a famous wine region in Western Australia. The climate here is particularly suitable for growing grapes, with vast plains and beautiful scenery. When I first came here, I was deeply attracted. I wanted to have a vineyard in here, and I had no time to take care of the vineyards and grow my favorite vegetables and fruits. In addition, because Western Australia is sparsely populated, it has a preferential investment and tax policy! There are many wineries in the
Margaret River, and Sanyo Winery is one of the shooting locations for "Where is Dad 3". The owner of the winery is Chinese, and since then it has become more famous and has become one of the must-see destinations for the local Margaret River Chinese Day Tour. When we went to visit this time, the handsome guy of the winery was very enthusiastic to let us go to take pictures, and took out the most famous and noble wine in the winery to take pictures of us. It is worthwhile to go on, haha!
Voyager Estate is the top wine estate of Margaret River. It has a huge area, there are not only large vineyards, but also vegetable gardens and rose gardens. The Australian dollar can taste 3 different types of selected wines. If you plan to buy the wine produced here, you can pay the price of the purchased wine directly, without paying the additional 9 Australian dollars for wine tasting. The staff here will be fluent Chinese staff, will be warm to ask what style of wine you like, and explain in detail the taste and characteristics of the various wines that he recommends to you, you can choose to buy after three kinds of taste.

Lake Cave, Margaret River, Perth 🇦🇺
#wheretogo
When in Perth, Australia, I had the opportunity to go visit Lake Cave, and it was truly magical.
Located in Margaret River, Lake Cave is a magnificent chamber located deep beneath the earth's surface. Once inside, journey into this ancient attraction to marvel at its crystal formations which have been growing over almost a million years.
Well worth a visit, as it’s really a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Tip: wear comfortable sturdy shoes.
My rating of this attraction: 5 ⭐️ out of 5!
Pony riding at Jesters Flat Equestrian
#wheretogo
We brought our 4yo to ride a pony at Jesters Flat.
Jonho, the pony, was her ride and he was very cooperative.
We were very surprise that we were allowed to bring the pony ourselves around the track and we just need to follow the path. Mind you it’s in the forest. Everything was very quiet and we can hear the birds chirping.
They didn’t limit the time and you can go around the path multiple time but the adults were so tired walking on the terrain!
There are horses if you are keen to do horse riding too.
I highly recommend this place for a great pony or horse riding experience.

The New Sunflowers Animal Farm
The sunflowers animal farm is the ideal place for all kids and animals lovers. If you are not a fan of farm animals or hate the stench of animals poop, then please avoid this place at all cost. Otherwise, I love this farm for its friendly and nice staff and a good mix of farm animals!
Sunflowers animal farm has just moved to a new place in Ludlow. They were previously in margaret river. The new farm offers both young and old an amazing farm experience. With a small sum, you get to purchase animal feed and you can freely feed the animals there. Kids are also allowed to bottle feed baby animals and they are so cute! You can pat and hug the animals.
Lastly, you can take pictures with their famous farm tractor. Definitely, a boys favourite!

Yahava Koffeworks
There is one outlet of Yahava Koffeeworks in Singapore at Tagore Lane but it is nothing compared to the original Yahava in Perth Australia. And also if you realised, you do not see starbucks in perth, but rather you would see many outlets of Yahava Koffeeworks, even at petrol kiosks. Their coffee is like magic at Yahava, you could taste the aroma of the coffee and it is just wonderful. Their coffee beans is on sale too and grab a bag of it, If you can. I promise you their coffee is great! Also, the cups used for their coffee are huge and it only cost about 5-6 Aud for that size, compared to starbucks, a venti already sets you back close to $8sgd a cup. If you're at Yahava, order their cappuccino or mocha, it won't go wrong.

The many famous wineries and breweries
Perth is not complete without visiting the many boutique wineries and craft breweries at Margaret River. Margaret River is a tourist attraction that is located about a 3hrs drive away from the city of Perth where you will drive along the beautiful coastlines overlooking the Indian ocean.
This is a place not to be missed as it is known for its award winning wineries and beautiful beaches with great surfs. We went to watershed wineries which sadly close down due to covid but there are still many other wineries in the area where you will be able to do wine tasting tours, or visit the wineries on eco friendly bikes or maybe try some unique flavoured craft beers.
This is not to be missed when one is visit Perth. Plan your drive towards Margaret River and maybe stay a night or 2 along the coastal stretch while sipping your newly bought wine. This is just amazing!
