What to bring

We supply almost everything. We'll even take some high resolution photographs if you forget your camera.

The best advice is to prepare for all weather conditions with a hat and sunscreen but also a jumper/sweater. It is advisable to dress warm even in Summer. There is a saying in Margaret River - 'There is no such thing as bad weather. Just bad clothes'.

We are proud to supply Mountain Designs waterproof jackets in the event of exciting weather.

Please consider we will be undertaking some outdoor activities including access to a winery and vineyard. ENCLOSED walking shoes and relaxed clothing is most suitable.

We supply all food and beverage. You need to bring a sense of fun and adventure.

For guests booking multi day adventure & safari touring or guided Cape to Cape walks a suggested 'what to bring' list will be emailed to you with your booking.

Weather conditions

At The Margaret River Discovery Company we consider every weather condition perfect exploring weather. Rain adds freshness to the landscape, wind adds a sense of drama to the walk, clouds allow for better photographs and sunshine, well, sunshine is always preferred, it's just not guaranteed. Though we adapt our itinerary depending on weather conditions you should consider Margaret River often experiences four seasons in one day! As such we supply waterproof Mountain Designs jackets.

Gourmet or Eco tour?

It's both.
Think Al Gore meets Jamie Oliver.
