  1. A

    Maritime Museum Shipwrecks Galleries

    Although the Maritime Museum commands a lot of attention, don’t miss the intriguing Shipwrecks Galleries, where you can learn about gung-ho seafaring adventures and misfortunes. The museum (in a building constructed in 1852 as a commissariat store) has a display on WA’s maritime history, with emphasis on the recovery and restoration of the famous wreck Batavia, in addition to other Dutch merchant ships and some more recent wrecks.

  2. B

    WA Maritime Museum

    Housed in a stunning, architect-designed building on the harbour, just west of the city centre, the WA Maritime Museum explores WA’s relationship with the ocean. It faces out to the sea, which has shaped so much of the state’s, and Fremantle’s, destiny.

  3. Bon Scott sculpture

    A surprising drawcard for visitors is the Bon Scott sculpture at J Shed, where music fans can see this memorial to late-lamented local boy and lead singer of rock group AC/DC. A more permanent site is planned at Fishing Boat Harbour.
