Fremantle day trips: explore Perth and beyond

Purple squiggle

Margaret River

Home to several world-renowned and boutique vineyards, Margaret River is a premier destination for tastings and fine dining. Just outside the wineries, you’ll find plenty of outdoor adventure — explore the mystical limestone caves, take in the magnificent rock formations that line the coast, or paddle out to catch the Indian Ocean swells.

Rottnest Island

One of the few places where you can take a coveted quokka selfie, Rottnest Island is an iconic West Australian destination filled with adventure and relaxation. In this car-free zone, you can pedal your way around the island on rented bikes (or take the local bus) as you take in the stunning scenery, with pristine beaches and calm bays at every turn.

Swan Valley

Take a tour through Swan Valley and enjoy a leisurely tasting overlooking the vineyards, with gourmet meals prepared from the finest local ingredients. Just beyond the valley, you can meet native animals at the Caversham Wildlife Park or go for a stroll at the beautiful Bells Rapids.

Top tips for hiring a car in Fremantle

With great road conditions and wide streets, Fremantle is a great place to get around by car. Here are a few key tips for a safe and pleasant journey.

Perth road rules and driving conditions

Driving side: Like the rest of Australia, you’ll be driving on the left-hand side of the road in Perth and Fremantle.

Drink driving: Western Australia enforces strict drink-driving limits, so plan to stay well under them whenever you’re behind the wheel.

Child car seats: Children under seven years of age must be secured in a properly fastened and adjusted child restraint or booster seat.

Speed limit: Speed limits on Perth’s roads are clearly signposted. Where there are no signs, the default is 50 km/h in built-up zones and 110 km/h in rural zones — adjust your speed to suit the conditions and weather.

Road conditions: Roads in Fremantle and the Perth metropolitan area are sealed and in good condition, so getting around town is easy. If you’re picking up from Perth Airport, the run into Freo is a straightforward drive.

Fremantle’s rush hour and busiest roads

Fremantle is a bustling suburb that attracts lots of tourists and locals alike, and weekends and holiday periods are particularly busy. Expect congestion on main roads leading into town like Ord Street, Canning Highway, High Street, Parry Street, and Hampton Road, so give yourself extra time during these periods.

Toll roads around Fremantle

There are no toll roads around Fremantle, so you can drive without worrying about tolls.

Parking in Fremantle

Parking can be limited during peak periods. If you can’t find a street-side spot, try parking garages like the FOMO car park and Paddy Troy Mall Parking. On weekdays and outside the holiday season, street parking is easier to find — just read the signs carefully, as many bays are short-term.

Petrol stations and EV chargers in Fremantle

There are eight petrol stations within the suburb of Fremantle, so you won’t have to worry about finding one near you. There are also five EV chargers around the area, which you can locate on Plugshare.

Do I need to hire a car in Fremantle?

The best way to explore Fremantle is by car, so you can visit attractions at your own pace without relying on public transport or paying for rideshares.

All drivers must have a valid driver’s licence and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.
