Free Things To Do in Margaret River

The Weir is a hidden gem right in the heart of Margaret River Township and the  River.

The Weir has been built to support the fish habitat and at the same time provides an ideal Kodak/Instagram moment for locals and travellers

 West Australia has the worlds largest display of natural flora beauty. This is really due to being about the largest block of land that not only has remained fairly untouched by humanity and 'Progress' , but also has an ideal climate for nature to thrive. 

Still to this day, thanks to our indigenous taking care of the land and living 'in Harmony' with nature, we are still able to see the natural beauty given to us by mother nature in the form of Wildflower Season

Some of the recommended spots to see fields of Wildflowers are Boranup Forest, Tuart Forest, Hamelin Bay,  Ambergate Reserve, Busselton,   Meelup Regional Park, Dunsborough

Is it safe to drive at night in Margaret River Region?

Short answer is No. 

Most of the locals stay off the roads between sunset and sunrise, as that's when the Roos move around. When the sun rises, they will generally go looking for green grass to eat, then as the sun begins to set they tend to move around again in search for somewhere to rest at night.
