Travel

Mandurah is located less than an hour’s drive south of Perth and is perched on the coast overlooking the magnifi cent Indian Ocean. In the past 15 years, Mandurah has grown from a small coastal town on the way to Western Australia’s vast South West into a vibrant and cosmopolitan city with over 60,000 lucky residents calling it home. Yet, despite this enormous increase in population, which has resulted in the city being hailed as the fastest growing regional city in Australia, Mandurah has still managed to retain its relaxed, holiday atmosphere that has drawn visitors here from the beginning.

There is lots to see and do in and around Mandurah as the ebrochure on the Visit Mandurah website will show you  - http://www.visitmandurah.com/pages/ebrochure/
