With so much wide open space, a balmy climate, and a culture of outdoor living, the Western Australian capital of Perth is a wonderful place for a family holiday.

Freedom is the key when travelling with children, so find yourself self-catering accommodation and don’t tie yourself too rigidly to an agenda.

Perth is so laid-back that it’s easy to just go with the flow.

Here are some suggestions for things to do in Perth for kids:

Hillarys Boat Harbour, a popular marina and attraction located 23 kilometres north of Perth, where both locals and visitors hang out.

Hillarys is great for shopping, dining, keeping the kids entertained at the playground or beach, or just catching a sea breeze at the marina.

Many of the cafes and restaurants such as Zing Cafe and The Breakwater Tavern have sweeping views of the marina, and make a great place to just chill out and relax with family and friends.

Dining out changes somewhat when you bring children into the equation. You look at your choice of restaurant through different eyes, and what might be a perfectly fantastic restaurant for a romantic rendezvous might not have the same appeal when you add a couple of toddlers into the mix.

For some families, a restaurant with a play area tops their list of favourite places, for others it’s where they know that there will be something yummy for their kids to eat.

For others, it’s simply knowing that kids are allowed in the restaurant.

Here’s a list of some top restaurants and cafes in Perth for you to enjoy family dining.
