Day 1: Friday
After being greeted by your guide, it’s time to leave the city behind and begin three days of bliss, movement, and mindful adventure on your weekend escape from Perth.
Your first stop is Western Australian icon Busselton Jetty—the longest timber jetty in the Southern Hemisphere, stretching an impressive 1.8 kilometres over the sparkling waters of Geographe Bay. Take a moment to stretch your legs along the boardwalk and grab a drink from a local café as you soak in the sea air.
Then it’s onwards to paradise: the turquoise waters of Meelup Beach. Take a refreshing swim or simply relax on the sand and savour the coastal serenity before enjoying a peaceful beachside picnic, followed by your first yoga session in a setting that truly nourishes the soul. With the sound of waves, soft ocean breeze, and sunshine all around, you’ll be guided through a grounding practice by Heather Starr, beloved local yogi and founder of the South West Yoga Fest.
Time for a little indulgence, because a visit to Margaret River isn’t complete without a taste of its world-class wines. Be welcomed at Jilyara like an old friend. This small, family-owned vineyard is surrounded by bees, birds, and bushland. Settle in for an easy-going tasting and hear the story behind the label while you sip on wines that reflect the laid-back spirit of the region.
From here, it’s a short drive to Fair Harvest, your home for the next two nights. Nestled in the quiet surrounds of a working permaculture farm, this unique property features produce gardens, a yoga barn, a farm café, solar hot water showers, and eco-friendly composting toilets. Your bell tent glamping awaits.
As the sun sets, gather for a wholesome camp dinner, connect with your fellow travellers, and ease into the peaceful rhythms of nature.

Day 2: Saturday
Rise to the sounds of the farm and birdsong, and fuel your body with a nourishing breakfast. This morning, we head for the region’s iconic coast to stretch our legs on a walk at Surfers Point, home of the legendary Rip Curl Pro. Watch the waves roll in and the surfers carve it up—right where the Margaret River meets the Indian Ocean in a dramatic fusion of river and sea.
Next, we make our way to the vibrant Margaret River Farmers’ Market, where the region’s rich arts and food culture shines. While your guide gathers fresh produce for tonight’s dinner, you’ll have time to wander the stalls, soak up the vibes, and pick up a few gourmet souvenirs. Afterwards, head into town to explore the eclectic Margaret River main street, with free time to enjoy lunch at one of the many inviting cafés or restaurants.
In the afternoon, take things at your own pace with the optional addition of a relaxing massage. If you’re not treating yourself to a massage, you’ll head to the award-winning Giniversity at Margaret River Distilling Co. for a spirited Tour & Taste experience. Sip your way through four uniquely crafted gins, each paired with aromatic garnishes and discover the passion, creativity, and botanicals behind every bottle in a fun, hands-on tasting led by a local gin expert.
Back at Fair Harvest, take some time to rest and reflect before gathering for our final night together. Tonight’s dinner is a joyful celebration of the fresh ingredients we’ve sourced throughout the day, shared under the stars, in great company.

Day 3: Sunday
This morning begins with a beautifully grounding yoga and sound meditation experience in the yoga barn at Fair Harvest. Sound healing has ancient roots in cultures around the world, including Australia’s First Nations peoples, who have used the didgeridoo as a healing instrument for over 40,000 years. Let the vibrations wash over you and settle your nervous system as you prepare to re-enter the world with a fresh perspective.
After packing up camp, it’s time to immerse yourself in nature on a 5km bushwalk through the gorgeous Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. This coastal trail winds through native bushland to Cape Naturaliste, offering panoramic views across the ocean. Along the way, stop at scenic lookouts and take in the wild beauty of the coastline.
Finish with a relaxed picnic and refreshing swim at Windmill Beach, one last chance to soak in the serenity of this incredible region.
With your soul full, we’ll roll back into Perth around 5:30 pm, where you’ll farewell new friends and float gently back into everyday life—rested, inspired, and renewed.
