Autumn

The calm warm days and evenings are perfect for picnics and alfresco dining.
A more gentle sun provides ideal walking conditions – one of the best seasons to walk the spectacular Cape to Cape Walk Track or walk just short sections of it.
Beaches are quiet, yet the water is at its warmest – idyllic beach and swimming conditions
Whale watching begins at Augusta – catch a cruise from there and see them leaving on their long trip Northwards.
Beach fishing for salmon – right at Smiths Beach.
Loads of attractions for the kids during the May school holidays – visit Geographe Bay Visitor Centres at Busselton and Dunsborough or the Margaret River Visitor Centre for ideas.
