Perth Busselton Jetty Train
While there isn’t a jetty train in the Perth CBD itself, the famous “Jetty Train” is located in Busselton, which is about a 2.5-hour drive (220 km) south of Perth. It’s the longest timber-piled jetty in the Southern Hemisphere and a very popular day trip or weekend spot for locals.
Experience a 1.7-kilometre journey across the tranquil waters of Geographe Bay aboard the Rio Tinto Solar Express. As Australia’s first solar-powered jetty train, this electric “red train” offers a sustainable, 45-minute scenic round trip along Western Australia’s premier tourism icon. With departures every hour, it provides an effortless way to immerse yourself in the coastal beauty while enjoying the heritage of a timber-piled structure that has stood since 1865.
The experience is designed for both comfort and storytelling, featuring spacious, wheelchair-friendly carriages with six seats each. As you travel, captivating narrations reveal the vibrant history of the jetty, bridging the gap between its 19th-century origins and modern environmental innovation. Whether you are visiting for the engineering or the ocean views, this narrated voyage is an essential highlight of the Busselton experience.

The world is overflowing with moments just waiting to be turned into comic strips—little slices of life that capture humor and humanity in ways that transcend culture and language. What’s even more delightful is that these moments can happen to anyone, including ourselves. When we learn to notice and appreciate them, they can fill our hearts with laughter, lightness, and joy.
From a quirky exchange with a stranger, to a funny misunderstanding with a friend or family member, or even an unexpected mishap that catches us off guard—these everyday moments offer a welcome escape from life’s stress and routine. They remind us to pause, smile, and take pleasure in the simple, often overlooked absurdities that make life so wonderfully unpredictable.
By embracing the humor that life presents, we invite more laughter, warmth, and happiness into our days. Instead of focusing on frustration or negativity, we can choose to see the charm and amusement in the unexpected. Every stumble, every awkward encounter, and every mix-up can become a small story worth retelling—a moment that connects us through shared laughter and reminds us of our shared humanity.
Humor doesn’t just lighten our mood; it strengthens relationships, sparks creativity, and helps us see life from a fresh perspective. It breaks down barriers and reminds us that, no matter our differences, we all understand the language of a genuine laugh.
So let’s keep our eyes and hearts open for those small but meaningful moments that have the power to make us laugh—and let’s share them with others. After all, laughter truly is the best medicine, a universal language, and one of the simplest gifts we can give to ourselves and the people around us.
When we allow humor to weave itself into our daily lives, even the most ordinary situations gain color and vibrancy. A missed bus becomes an opportunity for a funny story; a clumsy mistake turns into a shared giggle; a random encounter evolves into a heartwarming memory. The beauty of humor lies in its spontaneity—it surprises us, lifts us, and reminds us that joy can be found anywhere, at any moment.
So perhaps the world is not only full of comic-worthy moments—it *is* a comic strip in motion, constantly unfolding. All we need to do is notice it, laugh at it, and celebrate it.
