Heading towards Margaret River from Perth? Check out the longest wooden jetty in the world, Busselton Jetty!

The jetty is just under 2km long and for those either not keen, or simply short on time, you could even hop on a cute tourist train to experience first hand just how long the jetty is.

Where is Busselton Jetty

Located 2.5-hour drive south of Perth, you will find Busselton. It is a beautiful seaside town and by the looks of the construction happening, will be a popular place for holidaymakers.

If you type Busselton Jetty into Google Maps, you will have no trouble finding it!

If you’re passing through, you could have a quick stop and it would still be worth it, but if it’s a nice sunny day you’re likely going to want to stay longer.

The best time to visit Busselton Jetty

If you’re looking for that perfect photo, I would suggest Sunset. We had a cloudy afternoon when we visited on our way down to Margaret River so didn’t quite get the photos we were hoping for!

You won’t be disappointed, no matter the time of the day. With perfect skies, you will really see the colour of the water and how beautiful it is.
