For those motorists who were our first members, car ownership unlocked the thrill of adventure across our vast state. Those same members helped others experience WA through the creation of road maps and signs to lead the way.

Here we continue the great tradition of inspiring locals and visitors to hit the open road and explore.

These are our favourite road trips, places to visit, and things to see and do in Perth and regional WA.

Traffic on Humpback Highway is officially underway

An aerial, top-down view shows a large humpback whale and its much smaller calf swimming side-by-side in deep blue ocean water. The mother whale is positioned horizontally across the center, exhaling a misty spray of water from its blowhole. Its dark, textured back has white markings near its pectoral fins, and its large tail fluke is visible. The small calf swims closely parallel to the mother's right side, facing the same direction. Clear turquoise water surrounds the pair, with light ripples trailing behind them.
