The Fremantle Visitors Centre is in Town Hall, Kings Square (at High St.), Fremantle, WA 6160 (tel. 08/9431 7878; www.fremantlewa.com.au). It's open Monday through Friday 9am to 5pm, Saturday 10am to 3pm, Sunday 11:30am to 2:30pm, closed public holidays.

Getting Around

The orange Fremantle CAT bus makes a comprehensive running loop of local attractions every 10 minutes Monday through Friday 7:30am to 6:30pm, and on weekends and holidays 10am to 6:30pm, except Good Friday and December 25 and 26. It is free and departs from the train station.

Getting There

Parking is plentiful, but driving is frustrating in the maze of one-way streets. Most attractions are within walking distance (or accessible on the free CAT bus), so take the train to Fremantle and explore on foot.

A nice way to get to Freo and see Perth's river suburbs is on the cruises that run a few times a day from Barrack Street Jetty./p>
