Fremantle is home to a thriving network of markets and creative collectives that celebrate local talent, sustainability, and slow living. The iconic Fremantle Markets, operating since 1897, are a must-visit, bursting with handmade wares, street eats, Indigenous art, and local produce. Around town, you’ll also find community-minded collectives and artisan hubs that champion emerging designers, vintage curators, and conscious makers. From weekend market stalls to boutique pop-ups, Fremantle’s shopping scene feels more like a cultural experience than a retail one.

WA Wellness is developing build-your-own wellness itineraries that suit all types of wellness travellers.

Fremantle is WA’s well-known wellness hotspot and even if you live in Perth, a long weekend in this coastal suburb south of the river, is exactly what the Fremantle Doctor orders. Follow our recommended itinerary and find your flow in Fremantle.

  • Our top accommodation pick for a staycation in Fremantle is the new Warders Hotel, a boutique retreat situated in the heart of Fremantle. Lots to love about this property.
  • After check-in, check-out the sauna and ice shower at Alchemy Sauna’s Fremantle location for an epic start to your wellness weekend.
  • For dinner, soak up the vibe at The Old Synagogue and book into Tonic + Ginger and explore flavours from Southeast Asia. They have an extensive series of vegan and vegetarian plates, with plates designed to share so you can connect with the food and each other.
  • Add a strength-building flow to fire up your weekend with a Heated Power Yoga class at Loop Yoga. Their Leighton Beach Studio is full of natural light, creating a dreamy setting for your practice.
  • Grab a bite to eat and a coffee from MRKT Space, their organic coffee beans roasted in Fremantle have quite the cult following. And then walk down and cool off in the refreshing waters of Leighton Beach.
  • For some soul nurturing you-time, book (in advance) a speacilist organic massage at Manusa Day Spa.
  • Then float over to Little Sister Deli and find inspiration for a laid-back dinner in your hotel with their high-quality local and international cheese, charcuterie, antipasti and more. So Gouda…you’ll be impressed.
  • Time to explore South Beach, and returning to its shores in 2025 is The Neighbourhood Sauna. Their first session is 6am and if chatting with community that early isn’t your thing, you can book a private session. Induldge in their traditional finnish sauna and enjoy the luxury of dipping in and out of the ocean during your session.
  • Head to Little Lefroy’s for a cafe inspired by happy visitors and making the smallest environmental footprint possible. With an inclusive menu, no gluten free, dairy free or vego gets left behind. As far as Fremantle vibe goes, this is it.
  • Leave the afternoon free to stroll through Fremantle and discover all the hidden shopping gems like Halka B Organics and Mother Earth Aromatherapy and thrifty second-hand stores.
  • For your final evening in Freo, book a divine spa room at Body Riches and let the world melt away in their Bali-inspired outdoor space under the stars. Hot tip: Add the Magnesium mineral flakes to the booking so you can sleep well through the night.
  • Take a slow morning at the hotel. Sip the coffee, savour the pastries, lie longer in bed.
  • If there’s time for one more place, you must visit the sanctuary of premium facilities at Tribe Sauna + Ice. Some contrast therapy ends the perfect weekend of wellness in Fremantle.
  • And before you leave, pick-up some great produce to continue the wellness at home. We love the fresh and organic produce at Peaches, a South Freo community favourite.
