The vast expanses of Australia's largest state are meant for those looking to find a place in the world that's been virtually untouched by man. Western Australia is essentially the entire western third of the continent with most everyone living in the southwest near Perth.

As the capital of this state, Perth is the most isolated large city in the world. With 2 million people living in and around Perth, this city sits in the middle of nowhere. There are less than 500,000 people living outside of the city creating that untouched atmosphere for the traveler looking to truly get away.



Regions

The state of Western Australia is divided into several regions. The region of Perth includes the state capital and its surrounding suburban areas. The Wheatbelt region is full of grain fields, and the Mid West has some excellent surfing beaches. Gascoyne has some tourist treats including the Ningaloo Reef and Shark Bay. The region of Pilbara is home to the mining region, and Kimberly has some of the most marvelous scenery in the country. Goldfields-Esperance is mostly barren flatlands with chills from Antarctica, and the South West region is the place to be for wineries, surfing and outdoor adventures.
