Perth is the capital of Western Australia with just over two million people and is said to be one of the most beautiful and fastest growing cities in Australia. Perth City is situated between the Darling Ranges and the Indian Ocean, and along the banks of the Swan River, 12 km from the ocean. Perth is the sunniest capital in Australia with an average of over eight hours of sunshine a day. Combine the warm weather and beautiful beaches and it's easy to see why so many people enjoy the outdoor lifestyle of Western Australia.

From walks and picnics in stunning parklands to a casual round of golf at any one of a number of championship courses, from sailing on the Swan to swimming in the clear azure ocean; from water skiing to windsurfing or just plain relaxing, Perth is perfect. Everything is so close to hand. Even Margaret River, one of the world’s finest wine districts, is only a leisurely few hours drive south. The cost of living in Perth is also generally lower than in other capital cities of Australia, i.e. is approximately 15% lower than the cost of living in Sydney.
