18 Cappuccino Strip See & Do Fremantle Freman tle is Western Australia 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, on the HMAS Challenger, in a ceremony which claimed the entire west coast of the previously named New Holland in the name of King George IV.

Fremantle is much more than an architectural time capsule.

36 Quokka Selfie! ROTTNEST ROTTNEST ISLAND QUOKKA Perhaps the most photographed animal in the world and dubbed the happiest animal on earth (due to the Quokka selfie craze), the quokka is native to Rottnest Island and looks like a pint sized kangaroo. William de Vlamingh, who in 1696 was the first recorded European visitor to Rottnest, gave the Island its name Rotte nest (meaning rat s nest) after the abundance of quokkas he saw, mistaking them for rats. Quokkas roam freely around the island in their natural habitat and are very friendly little creatures; but remember that Quokkas are wild animals and endangered species, so make sure you follow these simple rules to help protect them - don t feed, don t touch, don t harm. You may incur a $150 fine if caught touching or feeding a quokka as feeding a quokka its unnatural diet can cause serious illness or be fatal.

52 104 Fremantle Prison 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. This landing and A Brief History subsequent report by Stirling to His Majesty s Government back in England, led to the foundation of the Swan River Settlement in June 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 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 er 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.
