All about Fremantle
Situated on the mouth of the Swan River 30 minutes southwest of Perth, the town of Fremantle is steeped in history and home to many heritage buildings built from the pale-coloured local limestone on which the city sits. Fremantle is Western Australia’s major port, where cruise ships, ferries, and leisure craft come to birth. It is also the gateway to Rottnest Island, a special place for Western Australians with its relaxed atmosphere, amazing scenery, and some of the world's finest beaches and bays — the island boasts some world-famous inhabitants, including the adorable and very inquisitive quokkas.
A great way to discover all the attractions of the city is to embark on The Fremantle Discovery Trail. This easy walk will take you to the iconic Fremantle Markets, the Cappuccino Strip with a mix of cafes, bars, and restaurants, the historic Fremantle Prison, and to the heritage listed West End precinct of the city. The trail normally takes around two hours, but with so many places to stop and enjoy, you could make a whole day of it.
