Perth

With its relaxed vibe, beautiful beaches and charming wine region of Swan Valley, it's a place that can make even the most stressed-out person feel chilled out. Perth, on the other hand, is like that quiet kid who turned out to be really interesting once you got to know them. With its stunning beaches, booming food scene, and one of the largest inner-city parks in the world (take that, Central Park), it's definitely worth a visit.

The best time to drop by? Summer (December to February) if you're a sun-seeker, or spring (September to November) if you prefer milder weather.
