🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families who enjoy scenic walks with genuine marine curiosity to reward at the end. The underwater observatory delivers up-close reef fish viewing that justifies the full walk. Families with prams or younger kids who tire easily will appreciate the train option running from both ends.

“Busselton Jetty is an absolute must-visit in WA! The views are breathtaking, especially at sunset when the ocean turns golden and peaceful. The walk along the jetty is calm and refreshing, with endless ocean views that make you slow down and just take it all in. The little train ride is such a fun and relaxing experience, and the underwater observatory is fascinating — getting to see marine life up close was definitely a highlight. Everything is well maintained and beautifully looked after. Whether you’re visiting with friends, family, or just enjoying a solo moment by the water, Busselton Jetty is truly special and so worth the visit.”

“Really nice walk out on the Jetty $5Aud to enter, which is a nice hat tip to the upkeep of the place. It is a long walk, and can get caught in weather. We experienced very blustery wind on the way back in, but there is a train you can hop on from either end for those that might struggle with the walk. All in all a great way to spend 50mins to and hour!”

“Beautiful place to visit with friends and family. Take a long walk of about 1.8 Km at Jetty. You can take small tram as well if you don't like to walk. Its amazing to see color of water changing from light blue to dark at about half way inside.”
