Car Hire Perth Airport

Whether you fancy fish and chips on the beach, dining on King Street or a picnic in the park, Perth has enchanting views to match its new-found vibrancy. To fully appreciate Perth’s recent transformation, a rental car is essential. Hiring a car at the airport is an easy choice when exploring the city and its surrounds for a few days.

Hire a car from Perth Airport and explore sunny WA

Perth sits along the Swan River and has an average of 3,000 sunshine hours every year. On top of Perth's sunny personality, this city’s revived art and food scene in combination with its stunning parks and outdoor settings provides travellers with a refreshing experience. Take a stroll through King’s park and explore the treetop walk, Indigenous Heritage Tour, or Lotterywest Federation walkway. Drive over to Elizabeth Quay, home to various art exhibitions, good eats, and colourful markets – a perfect one-stop-shop for activities across all ages and interests.

Unearth eclectic shops in Northbridge (this is also a vibrant pocket for evening drinks and the nightlife scene) or take a quick drive down to Fremantle for thought provoking art displays, local markets, historic charm, and the Little Creatures Brewery.

Of course, we can’t forget the beaches, and Perth is certainly not lacking in kilometres of stunning seashore. Port Beach is great for families, and Cottesloe is a popular hub for swimming, snorkelling, and soaking up the sun. Scarborough Beach is known for its exceptional surf and Leighton beach is a dog lover’s paradise.

Other recommended areas for exploration include Matilda Bay, Trigg Beach, Sorrento Quay, South Perth Foreshore, and Fraser Avenue Lookout.

Explore Perth's natural delights in your rental car from Perth Airport

Perth is central to some of Australia’s greatest natural beauties, so rent a car, hit the road, and go explore the pristine regional surrounds of Perth.

Three hours south sits the much-loved Margaret River region, known for delicious wines and quality food, plus the added bonus of white-sand beaches situated nearby. Swan Valley is another renowned location for great wine and food. Just an hour outside of the city, Swan Valley’s food and wine trail is 32km long, winding through 150 wineries and breweries. Happy trails indeed!

Why not hop on the ferry from Perth to Rottnest Island and explore a remote paradise unlike any other.
