A BRIEF HISTORY
The first inhabitants
of Australia arrived
from the north
approximately
40,000 to 60,000
years ago. Prior
to the arrival of
Europeans, Western
Australia was
occupied solely
by Indigenous
Australians who had
lived peacefully and
in harmony with
the land for tens of
thousands of years.
Indigenous Australians have
a rich history and culture
that is well worth exploring.
Like so many Indigenous
cultures of the 18th and 19th
centuries, things were about
to change.
In March 1827, Captain
James Stirling of the Royal
Navy arrived in the Swan
River and discovered a land
that possessed great natural
attractions, in contrast to
the previous Dutch and
French navigators who
described New Holland (a
name given to Australia
by the Dutch) as sterile,
forbidding and inhospitable.
6
This landing and subsequent
report by Stirling to His
Majesty’s Government
back in England, led to the
foundation of the Swan River
Settlement in June 1829.
Using the Swan River for
transport, three towns were
formed, Perth, Fremantle
and Guildford. Fremantle,
20 kilometres downstream
on the coast served as the
colony’s functional port and
Guildford, 20 kilometres
to the east was chosen
to supply produce to the
surrounding region because
of the rich, fertile soil found
in the Swan Valley.
Experiencing severe labour
shortages, the British
sent convicts to Western
Australia between 1850
and 1868 to help establish
settlements. 9721 convicts
were transported to WA
on 43 convict voyages.
Between 1850 and 1868
Western Australia was a
Penal Colony. The convicts
were involved in a significant
amount of infrastructure
such as the Fremantle
Prison, Government House,
The Cloisters, the Swan River
Mechanics’ Institute and the
Perth Town Hall.
The Noongar people have
a rich cultural heritage that
offer visitors an experience
found no where else in the
world, and have forged
a strong identity that
resonates throughout the
state. View the Indigenous
art at the Art Gallery of
WA, the WA Museum and
the Aboriginal Art Gallery
in Kings Park. Visit the
Charnock Woman, a 25
metre pavement mosiac in
Victoria Gardens, East Perth,
or the Yagan statue on
Heirisson Island.
It took until the turn of the
century to explore most of
the state. In 1890, gold was
discovered in the Kimberley
and Kalgoorlie. This led
to a population explosion
and established Perth as
the colony’s trade capital,
with Fremantle having to
upgrade the harbour to cope
with increased demand.
Most of Fremantle’s original
architecture can still be seen
today lovingly restored.
With the advent of the
Second World War, the 1940s
initiated a huge demand for
minerals and WA had plenty.
Lead, iron ore, diamonds,
nickel, mineral sands, oil and
gas, with some of the biggest
mining and exploration
companies in the world
having offices in Perth. WA’s
economy still relies heavily
upon the natural resources
sector.
The Indigenous Cultures
of Australia are the oldest
living culture in the world.
Indigenous communities
kept their cultural heritage
alive by passing their
knowledge, arts, rituals
and performances from
one generation to another,
through storytelling,
painting and dance.
Since white settlement and
the subsequent loss of their
land and disconnection
from their traditional
way of life, Indigenous
Australians are one of
the most disadvantaged
groups in society today.
Indigenous Australian’s
vision is for Australia to
respect the rights, culture
and contribution of the
Aboriginal people, and
many areas of society are
working towards improving
relations and solving
the problems they face.
Reconciliation involves all
sectors of the community
working together to
achieve positive outcomes
for all Australians.

Guided Tours of the Port City
SEE & DO
FREMANTLE
Freman­t le is WA’s
chief port and is
situated at the
mouth of the Swan
River, just 25 minutes
west of Perth.
Cosmopolitan, friendly
Fremantle was founded in
1829 by Captain Charles
Howe Fremantle, in a
ceremony which claimed
the entire west coast “New
Holland” in the name of King
George IV. Convict labour
was used to build many of
the original buildings such
as the Fremantle Prison
and Fremantle Arts Centre,
and with the arrival of the
gold rush, Fremantle soon
developed into a thriving
port.
Fremantle is much more
than an architectural time
capsule. Full of colour
and a relaxed and casual
atmosphere with busy
restaurants and bars trading
all hours of the day and
night, one of the most
intriguing aspects is that it
is still possible to walk down
streets that have remained
virtually unchanged since
the mid-19th century.
Browse through historic
markets, bookstores and
local designer boutiques.
Enjoy fresh fish and chips
and succulent seafood at
the Fishing Boat Harbour,
pizza and pasta along the
Cappuccino Strip, world
famous coffee at one of the
many cafes, or visit one of
the sylish microbreweries
such as Little Creatures, who
offer an incredible range of
amber ales.
Learn Fremantle’s history
and visit a selection of
museums such as the
Maritime, Shipwreck or
the Army Museum. Enjoy
a free exhibition at the
Fremantle Arts Centre, a
swim in the ocean at Bathers
Beach, or simply enjoy the
lovely winter sun in one of
Fremantle’s shady parks.
Fremantle Prison and The
Roundhouse offer historic
tours or take a guided Tram
ride to experience more of
the city and its’ history. See
the following pages for a
selection of attractions and
activities or drop into the
Fremantle Visitor Centre in
Kings Square and ask the
helpful staff.

THE
ROUNDHOUSE
The Roundhouse is the
oldest public building in
Western Australia. Opened
in 1831, it was built to hold
any person convicted of
a crime in the settlement
until 1886. It had eight cells
and a jailer’s residence, all
of which opened onto a
central courtyard. After it
ceased being used as a gaol
it became a Police Lock-up
until the late 1890s and then
was used as accommodation
for the Water Police, and
afterwards as a storage
facility for Fremantle
Ports. Today it’s a popular
historical tourist attraction
with sweeping views over
Fremantle, the Fishing Boat
Harbour and Indian Ocean.
Open 7 days, 10.30am to
3.30pm. See above and the
Fremantle Map.

FISHING BOAT HARBOUR
FISHING BOAT
HARBOUR
The Fishing Boat Harbour
is Australia’s largest small
boat harbour and is home to
a wide range of commercial
fishing vessels. The Harbour
was built in 1919 and many
of the fishing enterprises
are descended from the
Italian towns of Molfetta on
the Adriatic Sea, and Capo
d’Orlando in Sicily.
Many families of the
original fisherman still fish
out of Fremantle today.
The Fishing Boat Harbour
was actually a small
fishing industry until it
was subject to worldwide
focus following Australia II
winning the America’s Cup,
which resulted in major
development over a very
short period of time.
The Harbour today is still
a very busy working port,
and is home to over a dozen
restaurants, the Shipwreck
Museum, a fresh fish market,
accommodation and a
brewery. Shop for freshly
caught seafood, soak up
the ambiance and watch
the fishing boats come
and go while enjoying the
world’s finest fresh fish. See
the following pages for a
selection of dining choices.
Sweetlips Fish & Chips
Sourced straight from the ocean and not the
freezer, enjoy fresh fish and chips, squid, prawns,
seafood burgers and salad cooked and prepared

edge, which celebrate and

heritage, and it’s also home

years ago; the first records

of Perth (two hours by car) and can be
enjoyed as a day trip or stay the night at
nearby Cervantes. These amazing natural
limestone structures were formed over
25,000 years ago, after the sea receded
and left deposits of sea shells. Over time,
coastal winds removed the surrounding
sand, leaving the pillars exposed to the
elements. Entry is $12.00 per car.

Less than an hour from

tourist destination and also a
popular weekend getaway for
locals. With plenty of quality
waterside restaurants, clear
blue water, spectacular beach
sunsets, wildlife, numerous
activities for the family, plenty
of accommodation choices and
a relaxed, holiday atmosphere,
Mandurah offers something

The Mandurah area was
originally home to the Binjareb
people, of the Bibbulmun
nation. It was then known
as Mandjoogoordap, which
translates to 'meeting place of
the heart'. In 1828, Englishman
Thomas Peel established
a small settlement at the
mouth of the Peel-Harvey
Estuary. In the late 1800's, the
quiet fishing village carved
an existence from fishing,
farming and canneries. Holiday
makers increasingly traveled
from Perth and beach houses
sprouted along the coast. The
pastoral land has since been
transformed into canals lined
with multi million dollar homes.

Fremantle Prison was used as

punishment for 136 years. Some
inmates were granted special
permission to paint as part
of their rehabilitation, but for
most of this time convicts were
prevented from painting on the
walls. Then 6 months before the
Prison closed in 1991, discipline
was relaxed and prisoners were
given wide ranging permission
