The region is an ideal destination for families, offering a range of different activities, attractions, tours, accommodation and restaurants to suit the whole family. Geographe Bay’s beaches from Busselton through to Dunsborough provide calm, safe water for families to enjoy. Water activities such as snorkelling, swimming, boating, fishing, body boarding and diving are popular in the area for this reason.

Busselton

The Nautical Lady Entertainment Park on the beachfront at the base of the jetty is a favourite for many children as it features a giant waterslide and lots of other activities. Also available in or very near the townsite of Busselton is Fun-O-Rama, Golf 'n' Fun, Broadwater Par 3 Golf Course and Busselton Archery Park. Yoganup Playground and skatepark near the Busselton beachfront offers excellent play equipment and barbecue facilities. Remember ‘going to the drives’? Busselton’s Drive-in theatre is open during summer and busy holiday periods.
