Mention Dunsborough and most people will think of holidays.
It was judged to be Western Australia's top tourism town in 1999 and it's easy to see why.
Situated right on the sheltered waters of Geographe Bay, and with a zillion tourist attractions nearby, Dunsborough is one of the best family retreats in the south west.
Whether you're into bushwalking, swimming, snorkelling, diving, fishing, photography, wineries, canoeing, caves, sightseeing, whale watching, camel rides, or pretty much anything else, Dunsborough can deliver.
Dunsborough is a small town, and as such doesn't have some of the facilities that you'd find in the larger centres. However, Dunsborough is only 24km away from Busselton, which can provide you with everything you need.
