Our Tourism Regions

Destination Perth represents ten distinct tourism sub-regions across Perth and its surrounds, each reflecting the way visitors naturally explore and experience the destination.

Our tourism regions use soft boundaries, grouping neighbouring areas with shared landscapes, experiences and visitor appeal. They support destination marketing, storytelling, itinerary planning and the way we organise tourism businesses, experiences and content across the Destination Perth region.

The regions do not align directly with administrative, electoral or Regional Development Commission boundaries. The Local Government Areas (LGAs) associated with each region provide a guide to Destination Perth's geographic coverage and membership eligibility.
