Nice, easy fun in Busselton.
Lovely friendly staff
Beautiful sunshine and sea place! Fantastic volunteers serving the community. Given more time, do try the walking than taking the jetty train which is just fine but a little bumpy and not able to hear the intro from the sound speaker. The underwater observatory though not a large area to boast about but really the closest one can get to see the fishes swimming freely along with the live growth organism and corals without the wet suit. Must say the food in the restaurant at the jetty is one of my favourites while in Perth!
This was a great few hours to enjoy the jetty and underwater observatory. The little train was very relaxing and enjoyable. The tour guide was very well informed about the fish at the end of the jetty. The facilities and views were great. I can't recommend this enough. I bought tickets online as it was a long weekend and the process was very easy.
