Perth to Monkey Mia road trip: Distance, driving time and attractions
Francois Peron National Park and Monkey Mia
The last leg of the Perth to Monkey Mia road trip is from Denham to Monkey Mia. This takes under 20 minutes, but you might want to detour into the Francois Peron National Park on the way. Here, a major attraction is Big Lagoon – a great place for dolphin and stingray spotting. Cape Peron, meanwhile, has a magical combo of red cliffs, white sand and turquoise water.
The only accommodation at Monkey Mia is the RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort. Book well in advance of arriving. There is also a $15 per car Monkey Mia entry fee.
