Yallingup

Yallingup is a beachside town of 1,200 people (2021) in the Margaret River region of Western Australia.

Bus
TransWA run the SW1 road coach service from East Perth to Yallingup, departing Su–Th at 9AM and 12:15PM, and Friday at 9AM and 4PM. There is no Saturday service. Instead of getting the bus all the way from East Perth, it can be nicer to get the Australind rail service from Perth Station to Bunbury, and then change (to the above coach service). The coaches arrive in Yallingup at 1:25PM, 4:35PM, or 8:34PM.

Get around
You may not be able to walk between the beach and the caves - too far and too steep. The walk between Caves House and the Caves is a nice bush walk. A car or a tour are the best options to see the area.
