Camper Trip in Perth and Western Australia Trip

Perth, West Australia is the largest State in Australia comprising 12000km of pristine white beaches and aqua blue gentle waters. The City of Perth was founded by Captain James Stirling in 1829 and his profound statement which resonates profoundly “as beautiful as anything I have ever witnessed” is pure testament to this exquisite place, the settlers arrive in Western Australia in 1829. Nations like France and The Dutch had been exploring these shores from the early 1600’s and had found a land populated by our aboriginal indigenous people who had spent the last 50 000 years.

An explosion of immigrants post  World war 2 brought huge growth to the city and camper trips are not only for the aqua waters of the Indian Ocean alone but historical visits to our maritime area in Fremantle or Gold mining towns are much a part of the camper trip in Perth , the mineral boom in the 1960’s and 1970’s led to a deluge of skyscrapers and the views from this vibrant city overlooking the Swan River spectacular, this “Lucky country” as is spoken of worldwide continues to impress with cranes swamping the skyline as growth continues  reminding visitors of the abundance of wealth within this mineral rich city.
