SWAN RIVER, PERTH

The Swan River begins at Wooroloo Brook a point at which the Avon River meets the brook and becomes the Swan River. The Swan River then flows for approximately 67km to Fremantle exiting from the harbour into the Indian Ocean.

The river is a grand waterway running through Perth and along its banks there are many reserves, parks, water sport facilities, hotels and entertainment & recreation centres. The wildlife and waterbirds enjoy the water also, of course!

  7. The pelican is wonderful... but with a name like Swan River I was expecting there to be lots of swanning about!
