Margaret River Town
Margaret River
The regional hub, with restaurants, craft beer bars and galleries lining its main street. The Saturday farmers' market offers local food to sample, and the town makes a convenient base for stays and day trips.
Margaret River town sits on the river of the same name and has a population of about 7,000. It is the service centre for the whole wine region. Bussell Highway, the main street, is lined with restaurants, craft beer bars, surf shops, galleries and the visitor centre, where you can pick up winery maps and book winery tours. The farmers' market held on Saturday mornings sells local cheese, jams, organic produce and brunch, and is very popular. A riverside path leads into the forest. The town has plenty of accommodation and works well as a base for a three- to four-day itinerary. Yallingup to the north and Augusta to the south are both within a 45-minute drive.
