Australia Margaret River Guide Phone App

Western Australia is one of the continent's most stunning territories. Now, the Margaret River Guide (MRG) phone app has become available to aid tourists and visitors find the best places to stay while on vacation there.

The town of Margaret River, WA, was once the province of cool surfer dudes, but now has become the hub of a remarkable tourist industry. It is only a three and a half hour drive south of Perth. You will find there a tempting potpourri of good food, fine wine and beer, and spectacular scenery. If you are a wine lover, you will enjoy the extensive coverage of the region's world-famous wineries. There are over 60 wineries in the immediate vicinity to tempt every palate.

Do you like to eat? You will love the local products – fine cheeses, jams, condiments and seafood, prepared my many world-class chefs. But bring your sweet tooth -- the area sports factories producing chocolate, fudge and ice cream, and they offer free tastings.

Arts and crafts are represented by ubiquitous galleries on just about every corner. Souvenir hunters will have a field day as they soak up the local culture of Western Australia. If you are feeling more adventurous, visit the network of underground caves, the wild coastline, ultra-clean sandy beaches, beautiful clear turquoise water, breath-taking forests, and handsome coastal walking trails. Or let it all hang out as you go rock climbing, repelling, surfing, canoeing, whale watching or fishing – the snapper is legendary.

The MRG phone app is interactive and gives complete information on such items as food, entertainment, local accommodations and must-see regional events. It is available in Android and iPhone versions. If you have an earlier smartphone, it is wonderful time to do an iPhone trade in, considering that the new iPhone 5 has just been released. The app features local weather and tide information so that you can maximize your enjoyment of each day. The GPS feature is handy for tourists who want to navigate to their next destination.

One valuable feature is that the app links to genuine reviews from tourists concerning their visits to the region. These reviews help you find the best deals for accommodations, eateries and entertainment for individuals or families. There is a weekly update of local events and news stories. Designed by the award-winning Margaret River Guide team, the phone app is an example of their solid business approach and their ongoing commitment to promoting the Margaret River area.
