The best photos of Margaret River aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Boranup Karri Forest will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
A world-class wine region in Western Australia's southwest, surrounded by tall-timber forests, limestone caves, and powerful surf beaches.

Margaret River attracts visitors for food and nature, and Boranup Karri Forest and every landmark doubles as a photography opportunity when you know where to stand and when the light is best. A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse reward those who wander off the main path.
The town center is walkable, but a car is essential for wineries, caves, and beaches — the region stretches over 100km from cape to cape. Join a guided wine tour to avoid driving between tastings.
