When to visit

The best time to visit Bunbury is during the spring months of September to November when the weather is mild and the wildflowers are in bloom. Summer (December to February) is also a popular time to visit for beach activities, but it can get quite hot. Winter (June to August) is the wettest season, so visitors should be prepared for rain. Autumn (March to May) is another good time to visit, with cooler temperatures and fewer crowds.

Getting around

Bunbury is a compact city that is easy to navigate on foot, especially in the city center. Visitors can also rent a car to explore the surrounding areas, such as the Ferguson Valley or the Bunbury Wildlife Park. Public transportation options include buses and taxis, but they may be limited in some areas. Cycling is also a popular way to get around Bunbury, with bike paths and rental options available.
