Margaret River Guide 2024

The climate is warm and maritime. The daily sea breezes during summer work like an air-conditioner and moderate temperatures. Extreme heat is very rare. An ancient crystalline bedrock formation sweeps down from Cape Naturaliste to Cape Leeuwin, and is known as the Leeuwin Block. It is believed that this geological feature could be as old as 1,600 million years old. After the supercontinent Gondwanaland broke up through continental drift during the Cretaceous period (145–160 million years ago), an iron-enriched lateritic plateau formed over the bedrock, and the landforms were further shaped by weathering.
