Extending 1.8 kilometers over the protected waters of Geographe Bay, the heritage-listed Busselton Jetty is the longest timber-piled jetty in the Southern Hemisphere and the second longest in the world. Only 2.5 hours drive south of Perth, in the popular seaside resort town of Busselton, the Busselton Jetty attracts over 460,000 visitors per year. As one of the most popular tourist attractions in Western Australia, it is a must-see for any visitor to the Margaret River wine region. 

On arrival, board the jetty train and travel 15 minutes across the ocean to reach the underwater observatory, located at the far end of the jetty. Explore with a guide and descend 8 meters to the ocean floor via a spiral staircase of 60 stairs. Marvel at wondrous sea creatures and beautiful expanses of labyrinthine coral sprawling into the deep. Your ticket includes a complimentary return train ride, a 40-minute guided tour of the underwater observatory, and a jetty day pass. The tour concludes back at the interpretive center.

Between April 27 and September 25, 2019, an amazing Virtual Reality (VR) Experience is added to the tour. Feel like you are actually diving through the jetty among marine life and mermaids with 3D vision through VR goggles.
