Often dubbed the world’s most isolated major city, Perth and the vast expanses of Western Australia (WA) have traditionally played second fiddle to Australia’s eastern metropolises of Melbourne and Sydney. Yet, a new chapter is unfolding. With its strategic position as Australia’s only direct link to Europe, Perth is emerging as the country’s western gateway and a burgeoning global aviation hub. A $5 billion redevelopment of Perth Airport is underway, promising to elevate the travel experience and cement WA’s place on the international stage.
As new direct routes to Asia are introduced, Western Australia is poised to become a must-visit destination in 2025. But it’s not just about arriving—it’s about what awaits beyond the tarmac. Outside the vibrant, cosmopolitan vibe of Perth and the picturesque Swan Valley Wine Region, WA’s wild, untamed landscapes stretch over more than 2.5 million square kilometers. Here, travelers can explore 12,500 km of pristine coastline, mesmerizing bubblegum-pink lakes, dramatic horizontal waterfalls, towering karri forests, and an explosion of wildflowers.
Adventure seekers and nature lovers alike can encounter extraordinary wildlife, from swimming with whale sharks to taking selfies with quokkas—the famously cheerful “happiest animal in the world.” For those passionate about sustainability, the new 6,600 km Electric Vehicle Highway—what is claimed to be the world’s longest EV charging network—makes road trips eco-friendly and effortless, allowing explorers to traverse the state’s vastness in electric comfort.
In 2025, Perth and Western Australia stand ready to redefine Australia’s travel narrative—an accessible, awe-inspiring frontier where world-class infrastructure meets nature’s untouched wonders. Whether arriving via new international flights or embarking on an epic road trip, WA promises unforgettable experiences at every turn.
