Western Australia dominates the western third of the Australian continent, spanning over 2.5 million square kilometers from the Indian Ocean to the arid interior. This vast state combines pristine beaches, ancient forests, and the red earth of the Outback. Perth, its sophisticated capital, stands as one of Earth’s most isolated major cities. The region boasts extraordinary biodiversity, from whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef to wildflower meadows carpeting the desert, while its mineral-rich lands fuel a robust mining economy.
