Treat the family to a boat trip around the calm waters of Thomson Bay. There's no better way to explore its spectacular scenic beauty.

Thomson Bay is an interesting place to begin discovering Perth. This inlet along the shoreline comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other attractions like Geordie Bay, Rottnest Island Salt Lakes, and Longreach Bay to make the most of what the area has to offer.
