Why choose Margaret River for your road trip

Margaret River — a city worth exploring

Margaret River's coastline stretches over 130 km along Western Australia's south-west corner, where the Indian Ocean meets ancient karst limestone caves. The town itself sits roughly 270 km south of Perth, making it a rewarding drive through jarrah and marri forests that open up to rolling vineyards and surf beaches. You can wander through Mammoth Cave, where fossils date back over 35,000 years, or taste your way along the Margaret River Wine Region, home to more than 150 cellar doors. The Cape to Cape Track runs 135 km between Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse in the north and Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse in the south — the latter marking the exact point where the Indian and Southern Oceans converge. For art lovers, the Margaret River region hosts Sculptures by the Sea–style installations at Prevelly Beach, and the Watershed Wine Restaurant offers panoramic vineyard views alongside award-winning vintages. Busselton, just 50 km to the north, is famous for its 1.8 km timber jetty, while Dunsborough sits 45 km north-east and serves as a gateway to whale-watching in Geographe Bay. The roads here are well-sealed and campervan-friendly, with wide shoulders and gentle gradients through most of the wine country. Hiring a motorhome through Yescapa connects you with local owners who know the best free camping spots and scenic pull-overs. A campervan gives you the freedom to linger at a cellar door, then roll on to a beachside pitch before sunset — no rigid itinerary required.

Best time to visit

Margaret River shines from September to November, when wildflowers carpet the roadsides and the Margaret River Region Open Studios event invites you into artists' workshops across the area. Summer, from December to February, brings warm days ideal for surfing at Prevelly and exploring caves. The annual Margaret River Pro surf competition, typically held in April or May, draws crowds — so booking your campervan early for that period is a smart move. Winter months from June to August bring lush green landscapes and fewer visitors, meaning you can often find great-value hire rates through Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform. Whichever season you choose, Margaret River rewards a leisurely pace.

What our users say about our campervans and motorhomes in Margaret River

Wayne
5 / 5

Incredibly easy- Hector was there to talk us through everything. He was happy to answer all of our questions and gave us excellent practical advice. We felt fully supported abd it gave us a real confidence boost when we took control of the camper. We had to contact Hector during out trip sbout the van and he was on hand and easy to engage with. Ditto with our drop off. We loved using the camper: it was confortable and easily accommodated our family of 5 (including two teenagers!). It was a wonderful way to explore the Basque Country and we would definitely be up for doing it again.

Tuvimos una gran semana con la furgo, yo y dos hijos adultos. El dueño Samu fue de mucha ayuda por mensajes de texto para extra preguntas mientras estuvimos fuera, y nos llevó a la estación después de devolver la furgo

Everything was as described by Giulio. He was very accommodating and ready for any question/doubt we had. It was our first experience with a motorhome and Giulio made sure we felt comfortable and safe trying his motorhome. Thank you Giulio and see you next time!

Abbiamo passato 6 giorni a Lanzarote con il van di Lorenzo e ci siamo trovati davvero benissimo. Il van ha tutto quello che serve, è comodo e organizzato molto bene. È stato il modo perfetto per girare l’isola. Lorenzo è stato super simpatico, disponibile e sempre pronto a darci una mano o qualche consiglio, sia prima della partenza che durante l’intero viaggio. Si vede che ci tiene davvero a far vivere una bella esperienza a chi noleggia il suo van. Se dovessimo tornare a Lanzarote, lo ricontatteremo senza alcun dubbio. Grazie mille Lorenzo! Alla prossima :)
