Fremantle

Fremantle, the sea port of Perth, is always a hive of activity. From the colourful street entertainment and maritime activities to the well preserved heritage buildings - Fremantle is more than just a port. It is a good day trip destination, but also offers a range of quality, character accommodation for those who choose to stay longer.

Walk along the 'cappuccino strip' on South Terrace where you will find a great array of shops, boutiques and arts and crafts. Savour the international cuisine and coffee, before watching a cultural performance or street parade. Take a tour of the historic streetscape surrounds on a tram, by horse and cart, or on foot; visit the Batavia shipwreck in the maritime museum; challenge your senses with a ghost walk or a tour through the former Fremantle Prison; or enjoy an outdoor concert in the grounds of the Fremantle Arts Centre. Take an historical tour through the Round House - Western Australia's oldest public building, or witness the operations of the Fremantle port and Fishing Boat Harbour.

Underwater Recommendations

Most shops from Fremantle offer daytrips to Rottnest Island. The Leeuwin current coming down the coast warms the waters around the island. An exciting mix of both temperate and tropical species can be found here. The marine life includes hard and soft corals, sponges, morwong, scalyfins, wobbegongs and different butterfly fish and of course, plenty of Crayfish. Around the island a few wrecks can be found. Very complete, something for everyone.

Besides all this exciting marine life it is also possible to start your diving career right here in Fremantle with the possibility of doing your commercial diving certificate.
