North Fremantle is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Fremantle. Its postcode is 6159.
North Fremantle is situated on a peninsula, with the Indian Ocean bounding the west side and the Swan River the east side. On the north side it is separated from the suburb of Mosman Park by McCabe Street.
The suburb was once the site of Western Australian Government Railways' Leighton Marshalling Yards, which serviced the North Fremantle industrial area and North Quay. The area is now reserved for redevelopment by the state government.
North Fremantle is home to Mojos bar;[2] the Railway Hotel; the North Fremantle Bowling Club, a local community run club that supports local live music, and holds private functions and community events; and River Beach, Leighton Beach and Port Beach. The area's strong afternoon sea breeze (known as the 'Fremantle Doctor') makes its ocean beaches a prime location for wind and kite surfing. The Fremantle Surf Life Saving Club has been active since the 1930s.[3]
