Naturaliste

Perched on a headland on the western tip of Geographe Bay, Cape Naturaliste is Western Australia at its most wild, rugged and beautiful. And there's even a ‘haunted’ lighthouse.

The lonely lighthouse standing on top of the cape only adds to its desolate location. First things first: take a lighthouse tour for a stunning view of where Geographe Bay and the Indian Ocean meet. That done, get exploring the coast, with scenic hiking trails connecting beautiful beaches, secluded coves, and famous surfing spots. Hankering for a touch of civilisation? The lovely art galleries and restaurants of nearby Busselton and Dunsborough are waiting for you.
