Margaret River
From Wikitravel
Margaret River [1] is a coastal town south of Perth. It is at the centre of the Margaret River region, which is renown for its wineries, food and surf beaches.
[edit] Get in
Most common way to approach Margaret River is by car. There is a coach service several times a day from Perth. There is no scheduled commercial air service, although there is an airport. It used to take around 3 hours from Perth, but the new freeway extension that opened in September 2009 is claimed to reduce the trip by around half an hour.
[edit] Get around
Margaret River is a great place to walk or bike around. A car is helpful for seeing sites in the surrounding area, including the wineries.
