The wine is definitely top notch – the region produces less than one per cent of Australian wine, but wait for it – over 15 per cent of the country’s premium wine.
And with around 100 wineries to choose from, you won’t be stuck for choice.
If you’re coming in May, don’t miss the annual Margaret River Wine Region Festival.
Some of Australia’s best chefs produce a feast of top tucker to be had – think exquisite cheeses, jam, condiments, olives and marron (freshwater crayfish).
And you can’t beat this – there are even chocolate, fudge and ice-cream factories with free tastings.
Teamed with a thriving arts scene – there’s just about an art or craft gallery on every corner – it’s the perfect place to soak up some West Australian culture and pick up a souvenir or two.
