How safe is Perth?
One of the safest cities you can visit. The locals and culture are very friendly and generally helpful. You have to be weary as a female travelling anywhere, but Perth is definitely recommend even though it pretty remote for a city 😂
Posted: April 21, 2024You genuinely can walk around and pretty much do anything. Only time I’d say be careful is at night in areas with homeless people or junkies don’t go looking for problems but other than that you should be completely fine.

Perth feels very safe! The Aussie way of life is welcoming and warm. The beaches are incredible and the weather is usual pretty good- though windy at times. Australia is an adventurers dream with all of the rugged land and amazing people. You can find some great hostels and lots of room shares. It’s not the cheapest place to travel but with the right planning doesn’t have to break the bank. Perth is certainly more quiet than the east coast but it’s a natural paradise and I will be back / recommend it for a first time solo trip for any woman!

Oh, I love Perth! I didn't have high expectations for it when I traveled there. Eventually, I was enchanted by it. Rottnest Island is an absolute must-see. You can rent bikes there to explore the island. It was such fun! The Margaret River wine region is reportedly also amazing! I hope to be able to travel there in December when we return to visit my fiancé's family for Christmas!

In the heart of Perth there is a bridge for climbing and zip-lining, head to Freo to explore the history and great places to eat and drink, and besides that there's still Rotto, Margaret River, Pinnacles up north!
