More than wine and waves

The Margaret River area is best known for its amazing surf breaks and award-winning wines, but there’s much more to this gem of a town than first meets the eye. 

The Margaret River region lies between two capes. Cape Naturaliste with its majestic lighthouse sits at the southwestern end of Geographe Bay with views across the Indian Ocean. Cape Leeuwin's historic lighthouse in the south was hand-carved out of local limestone in 1895. National Geographic named the view from Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse one of the top three best ocean views in the world! Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park is one of WA’s favourite holiday destinations with trails leading from tall forests to the gorgeous coastline, impressive sea cliffs and hundreds of limestone caves.

The reputation of the Margaret River wine district is based primarily on its Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay wines, with its Semillon Sauvignon Blanc wines running a close third.
