Perth may be the most isolated capital in the world but it combines heritage with an urban world-class city and a side of beautiful beaches.
Us locals are pretty parochial, and we love that this city flies a little under the radar, but it really does have it all! From art galleries to al-fresco dining, a laid-back lifestyle, epic parks, events and top wineries, a trip to Perth is bound to be unforgettable.
Basking in more sunlight hours than any other major Australian city, Perth has the beaches to match. With Rottnest Island just off the coast, home to the friendly Quokkas and the largest inner-city park in the world, Kings Park there is plenty to explore.
Our local guides will help you discover the best places to go and things to do in this beautiful city of Western Australia.

Hi, I'm Lisa
As a passionate photographer and foodie, I’ve always loved the idea of living locally and making the most of what’s around me. I’m proud to call Perth home - a city I’ve lived in for over 20 years, and I’m constantly surprised by how much there still is to discover. In 2021, I started sharing my photos and recommendations on social media, and that’s how Perth Local was born. Since then, the community has grown to over 160,000 followers on Instagram and 40,000 on TikTok.
Perth was recently ranked the sixth most liveable city in the world, and I couldn’t agree more. Through my guides and website, I hope to help others uncover what makes this city and the broader state of WA such an incredible place to live or visit.
