Perth: Gateway to the Wild West

Western Australia is the final frontier. It’s wild, empty, and incredibly beautiful. Grab a campervan hire in Perth and choose your own adventure: head north towards the coral coast and the dusty red Pilbara. Unlike the East Coast, the West offers vast stretches of crowd-free beaches where you might be the only person for miles.

This is the place for true explorers. The sunsets over the Indian Ocean are legendary, and the distances are vast. Our guides are designed to help you tackle the long drives to bucket-list spots like Exmouth and the Pilbara region safely.

Must-Do West Coast Routes

We have mapped out the best drives starting from Perth. Here is where you should go:

1. Perth to Exmouth

The Coral Coast is insane. Our Perth to Exmouth Campervan Road Trip Itinerary takes you to the Pinnacles, Kalbarri, and finally Ningaloo Reef, where you can snorkel right off the beach.

2. The Epic Pilbara Trip

Want to go further? Read our guide on the Epic Pilbara Road Trip. It’s a true Aussie adventure featuring red dirt, ancient gorges, and some of the most remote camping spots on earth.

3. Distance Warning

In WA, towns can be 300km apart. Always carry extra water, check your oil, and fill up the tank whenever you see a petrol station, even if you are half full.
