ABOUT FREMANTLE Fremantle is set on the beautiful Indian Ocean. Fremantle was declared a city in 1829. The city was named after Sir Charles Howe Fremantle who, as the captain of the "HMS Challenger", took possession of the West Coast of Australia as British territory. Settlers soon followed in the "Parmelia" and established the Swan River Colony. Aboriginals occupied this land for thousands of years before it was taken over by settlers. You can learn much about their history, heritage and culture by visiting the Fremantle Museums.Fremantle experienced rapid growth in the "goldrush" years, bringing new business to the port, making it a thriving community.Americas CupIn 1983 Fremantle became a major tourist destination after Alan Bond's Australia II yacht won the Americas Cup. The Americans had been unbeaten for 132 years and, by winning The Cup, this made Fremantle the place to be. Fremantle was a hive of excitement and every day was like New Years Day. Businesses thrived and the local people developed a new sense of pride in their port city, which still remains today.The People of FremantleFremantle is full of cultural diversity. The multicultural Fremantle people bring with them a cosmopolitan flavour to the city. This is what attracts people from far and wide to Fremantle. The relaxed cosmopolitan lifestyle of Fremantle can been seen in full swing daily on the "cappuccino strip" and during the many festivals of Fremantle.Fremantle FestivalsFremantle holds several festivals throughout the year. A few of the larger festivals are listed below The Sardine Festival held in January, where you can taste the culinary delights of the many local cultures. The Fremantle Festival, full of art & culture held in November, when the streets come to life with colour and activities for weeks. In October, at the start of the new fishing season, Fremantle holds a festival called "The Blessing of the Fleet", to bring good fortune to the fishing harbour and its many fishermen. Part of the ceremony involves the blessing of the boats after a street procession from St Patrick's Church to the Fishing Boat Harbour. The procession itself is led by a statute of Our Lady who protects the local fisherman. The ArtsAlong with the diverse culture of Fremantle come the many galleries that feature contemporary arts and crafts.

900 kilometres (560 miles) north of Brisbane, in the heart of Queensland's popular Whitsunday Islands, Hamilton Island is one of the more accessible, stunning resort islands on Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

With an area of five amazing square kilometres, Hamilton Island lies close to the southeastern tip of Whitsunday Island, the largest island (109 square kilometres) in the Whitsunday group, North Queensland.

It is the only Queensland island with a modern jet airport, which allows you to fly directly to Hamilton Island from Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Cairns and Townsville in Queensland, and from Melbourne, Sydney, and Uluru in the Northern Territory.

Unlike Green Island and Heron Island, which are cays, the Whitsunday Islands are mostly continental islands and are the tips of underwater mountains. Many of these islands, like Hamilton Island, have fringing coral reefs and are considered part of the Great Barrier Reef.

If travelling by land on the Queensland coast, a fast ferry to Hamilton Island is available from Airlie Beach, south of the town of Bowen.

Or of course you can sail your own boat to Hamilton Island and park it right outside your villa!
