Margaret River & Beyond

Margaret River is a town and valley in the southwest of Western Australia, around 170 miles south of Perth. Between these two locations and beyond, there’s plenty to do both on the coast and further inland. It’s a region largely recognised for its organic farm produce, vineyards and craft breweries, so taking in a food and wine tour is certainly recommended.
