Margaret River itself is a small, not very impressive city, but additionally it’s a region famous for wineries, breweries, distilleries, chocolatiers etc. (a bit like Swan Valley in Perth). We spend the Sunday morning with tasting wines and beer in Cheeky Monkey, another beer and cider tastings in a German brewery (Duckstein). Later we continued with chocolate, jam vinegar, oil, dips, fudge (like the caramel stuff in Toffifee) and so on. Strengthened with all the food, we could hit the road again, since there is much more to see in the region except the treats. There are a couple of caves, like the Lake Cave we had the chance to visit. First we had to go down some steps until we reached a platform where our guide waited for us. After some additional steps we arrived in the cave and there were stalagtites and stalagnites everywhere around a little river ending up in a little lake. The highlights were a “table”, a drake and of course the see itself where we could see spectacular reflections.
After that cave we would have liked to see one of the others. But the entry was really expensive, why we chose to visit only one and we were a bit restricted in time. On the other hand our guide explained us that most of them are quite similar and we chose the best one on his opinion!
