Perth is the perfect place for a playful girls weekend on the west coast. Surrounded by parks, rivers and beaches, Perth is home to countless natural attractions, a blossoming bar scene, and a rich food and wine culture. Within just 30 minutes drive, you and your hens group can go from sipping wine in the cellar doors of the Swan Valley, to tearing up a dance floor in the city centre. And with no shortage of activities to choose from, you can hop from a rooftop yoga class to chocolate making and crafting flower crowns.
Just like snowflakes, no two brides are the same. Which is why we’ve searched high and low to find unique hens party ideas that everyone will love. From lavish ladies days at the spa and indulgent food and wine tours to high-adrenaline activities like quad biking and paintball, it’s a case of choose your own adventure. But why stop at one? Make a weekend of it for a full itinerary of fun!
Would you be sold if we said you could take a selfie with a smiling quokka? Just a short ferry ride from Perth is Rottnest Island, home to more than 10,000 of the cute and cuddly creatures (like a small wallaby the size of a cat). Back on the mainland, you’ll find endless options for outdoor activities to enjoy in the warm west-coast weather. The mercury reaches the high thirties in summer, relieved by a visit from the Fremantle Doctor (the local term for a cooling sea breeze) in the afternoon. Perth is also known as the third windiest city in the world, making it a popular destination to try your hand at sailing and kite surfing (or simply admiring the view of those who do). Having more sunshine than any other city in Australia, means more time to enjoy the parks, gardens, bush trails and ocean views before catching a stunning sunset. And just a short drive from Perth will take you to the wine region of Margaret River, the cellar doors and chocolate shops of the Swan Valley, or the natural wonder of Wave Rock.
Top Tips and Ideas
Parks may not be the first attraction that spring to mind for hens parties, but Kings Park commands attention in the centre of Perth, and being bigger than Central Park in New York City, it’s pretty hard to miss. You could take a tour of the Bell Tower to learn about the history of bell ringing. But let’s be honest, the highlight is chiming the bells yourself! And be sure to have a love lock engraved with the name of your #bridesquad and clip it onto the chains to lock your love for eternity. Just 30 minutes from the centre of Perth lies Fremantle, where you’ll find treasures galore at the Fremantle Markets from Friday to Monday, tour the historic Fremantle Prison or catch the ferry to Rottnest Island to meet the quokkas.
Drink in the culture of the picturesque Swan Valley, an iconic food and wine region within 30 minutes drive of the CBD. Or cool off at Scarborough Beach or the scenic Cottesloe Beach, with more than a kilometre of pure white sand.
Heading further south you’ll meander along to Mandurah, best known for its estuary and assortment of waterfront bars and restaurants. Continuing your journey you’ll come across the rare rock formations known as thrombolites in the shallow waters of Lake Clifton. Stop in at Bunbury and Busselton to see the local attractions (including dolphins) before reaching Margaret River. Here you can enjoy food and wine tours, sip samples at the craft breweries and explore ancient limestone caves.
Baby When the Lights Go Out
The west coast might not be known for its nightlife, but Perth knows how to party. This growing city has an exploding scene of boutique bars offering top shelf spirits and artisanal cocktails, served by the city’s best mixologists. You’ll find the busiest night spots at Northbridge, Subiaco and Fremantle, and a mix of establishments offering local music, indie rock and DJ’s at the all-night dance clubs.
For a more relaxed evening of entertainment, take a cruise under the stars on a Swan River dinner boat, have an open-air cinema experience at the Rooftop Movies or if you’re feeling brave, take on an after-dark ghost tour of one of Perth’s historic sights.
