Welcome to
Beautiful Mandurah

WA’s top tourism town
2022 & 2023

Mandurah ~ the stunning location Mandurah Cruises is proud to call home ~ is Western Australia’s second-largest city, situated under an hour from Perth. Best known for its spectacular waterways, Mandurah offers a unique blend of canals, estuaries, rivers and oceans, all populated with stunning marine life.

Voted Western Australia’s ‘Top Tourism Town’ for two consecutive years (2022 and 2023), Mandurah is loved for its relaxed vibe and welcoming nature. Our team of passionate locals are some of the City’s greatest advocates. We are at one with nature and cherish it with great care and respect. We look forward to sharing the beauty of this place ~ and some special Mandurah secrets ~ with you.

The City is thriving with arts and culture, plenty of things to see and do, and incredible natural encounters that are waiting to be explored.
