Want to catch the fireworks but don’t want to be part of the crowds in Perth on Australia Day?

While being in the city and up close to the action is the best experience, there is a place not far from the city that provides a truly unique and amazing experience.

Lake Monger, Wembley is a perfect place to take in the Perth Australia Day fireworks from not so far away.

There are 2 vantage points at Lake Monger
