Places To Be

 

Located 20km from Holiday Inn Perth City Centre, Fremantle is one of Perth WA’s most iconic and historic cities. A must see for Perth visitors who enjoy walking down buzzing streets filled with art and music, architectural heritage, restaurants, beautiful markets, and trendy cafes and bars.

Visit Little Creatures, one of Fremantle’s most bustling breweries, and enjoy a pale ale and delicious wood fired pizza overlooking the Fishing Boat Harbour. For a more educational yet fascinating experience take a tour of Fremantle Prison, recently listed as a world heritage site and the largest convict-built structure in Western Australia or visit the Maritime Museum. For the ultimate market experience, visit the Fremantle Markets for plenty of local produce, indigenous products, and a quirky atmosphere.

Hillaries Boat HarbourAttracting more than 4 million visitors annually and located 20 minutes North West of Perth city, Hillarys Boat Harbour is the perfect spot for everyone.

The harbour boasts a variety of stores and outlets including boutique fashion labels, giftware, souvenirs, art, jewellery and gourmet food. Wine and dine at 5 star restaurants, relax in a casual café setting or grab some take away and eat on the green lawns of the parks. Visit one of WA’s most award winning venues The Breakwater Tavern or indulge in a stunning smorgasbord overlooking the water at the jetty.

Catch a ferry out to Rottnest Island or stroll through the wharves to eye off all the yachts and boats. Get close and personal with the marine life at AQWA while learning and exploring WA’s coastline. Don’t forget to pack your bathers as Hillarys Boat Harbour has a safe and sheltered swimming beach.

If it’s a family trip there is plenty to keep the kids amused with waterslides, mini golf, trampolines, rock climbing and playgrounds at The Great Escape.

Perth WA’s favourite holiday destination, Rottnest Island features some of the finest beaches and bays in Australia.

Located 19kms off the coast of Fremantle, Rottnest Island is a short ferry ride 90 minutes from Perth’s Barrack Street Jetty. There is a long list of things to do, see and explore on the Island plus regular Island events.

Rottnest enjoys the same sunny Mediterranean climate with a relaxed casual atmosphere and stunning scenery. Rottnest Island is Perth WA’s perfect island getaway. The island is an A class reserve and is home to unique plant life and many treasured animals, such as the much-loved Quokka.

The best way to experience ‘Rotto’ is on two wheels. Hire a bike and soak up the true beauty and isolation of the island. With 6,500 years of history, 50kms of roads, guided tours, superb snorkeling sites, scenic beaches, and friendly quokkas – you will be spoilt for choice.
