South Beach travel information

This beach showcases the diverse nature of Fremantle and has a beautiful community feel to it.  Its 200m southern section is the most popular and is perfect for a swim or just to sit for a moment and take in the breathtaking views of Rottnest, Carnac and Garden Islands.

The grassed area backing the beach sees many social gatherings, be it a picnic, a simple catch up or even maybe some slack line practice – if you’re lucky you’ll even witness someone showcasing some acrobatic talent! The many scattered trees provide a good escape from the sun’s rays on a blistering summer’s day.

 There’s also a pirate themed playground for any pirate enthusiasts.

This beach hosts the Saturday Sunset food market from 6-8pm during the summer months, which brings yet even more people to the beach to share food, listen to live music and be merry.  

This is definitely a place were tourists and locals alike meet and share in the beautiful space and good vibes .The beach café is another perfect spot for a coffee or a meal.

Getting to South Beach with public transport is simple.

You can catch a train to Fremantle Station and then catch the CAT free bus service right outside the station, straight to South Beach. There is also ample parking space if arriving by car.
