Fremantle Markets

[Photo - Fremantle Markets]

Over 150 stalls offering everything from ocean-fresh seafood, fruit and vegies, cheeses, freshly baked bread, coffees, gourmet foods, herbs, spices, health food, painted t-shirts, cane-ware, pottery, fantastic clothing, finely crafted jewellery and much much more.

If you're interested in unique Western Australian Gifts then the Markets are the place to go. Sheepskin and leather goods, jarrah and cane products, dried wildflowers, opals, local shells and pottery are all available.

The building which houses the markets was originally built as a market hall in 1897 and the current building has been restored to its original Victorian grandeur.

You will also be entertained by buskers both inside and outside of the markets as you stroll from stall to stall, or rest your weary legs and quench your thirst at the market bar.
