Western Australia
In April, thousands of Australians flocked to the town of Exmouth, and the larger Ningaloo Peninsula in order to see a total Solar Eclipse as it was visible on the northern edge of Australia.
The event was planned for more than a full year and included musical performances, educational activities to learn about science, astronomy and other topics, as well as a three-day music festival.
Western Australia is more than just 60 seconds of wonder.
It covers one third of Australia’s landmass, from the vibrant, growing capital city of Perth, through the Great Victoria Desert and Great Sandy, to the wine-growing region of Margaret River and the dramatic clifftops and quokka-covered Rottnest Island. – Lilit Marcus
