About Perth
Perth is the capital of Western Australia and one of the most isolated major cities in the world. It is a centre for the mining and resources industries, and known for its beaches, the Swan River and nearby Rottnest Island. Its flights to Europe also make it an important gateway for Australia.
Perth uses Australian Western Standard Time, UTC+8, with no daylight saving, so it shares a clock with Singapore and Hong Kong. Australia has several time zones, and the eastern states that use daylight saving can be up to three hours ahead of Perth in summer. That gap is worth remembering when arranging calls with Sydney or Melbourne.
