What is there to do in North Fremantle?

Symbolic of much of the Australian outback, the landscape surrounding North Fremantle represents a sea of desert sands and endless shrubbery. The scenery is unique in its relentless stretches of land resting beneath scorching sun; make sure to bring sun cream when embarking on a mid-afternoon stroll. A large Aboriginal community reside in North Fremantle, bringing great diversity and tradition to Australia’s west coast. There isn’t much to do around the town, though there are some shops, hotels and restaurants for the benefit of tourists. For a refreshing change of pace, the bowling club provides a stress free way to while away a few hours, or for a livelier night, many of the hotels and bars host live music. Whilst the town centre may be a tad quiet, the shoreline is a prime spot for wind and kite surfing, so tourists can make the most of the coastal location.

How do visitors get around North Fremantle?

The town centre is relatively small so it is fairly easy to get around by foot, though there are also taxis readily available for quick and convenient transport.
