THINGS TO DO IN MANDURAH

Cruise through the Mandurah’s famous waterways

 

As mentioned earlier, Mandurah is famous for its vast inland waterways that span over 134 square kilometres. The city also calls itself the modern-day Venice with its charming canals guaranteed to give you a little slice of Italy.

 

No trip to Mandurah is complete without bumping into at least one of the 150 bottlenose dolphins. In fact it is home to the healthiest population of dolphins in the country! You will be sure to see them playing around while on the water.

 

Of course, the best way to explore the beautiful waterways and canals is by cruising them by boat. Non-golfers on our Margaret River golf tour will hop on Mandurah Cruises and get a chance to meet the local wildlife and discover the stunning Peel-Harvey estuary.

Discover the stories from one of the oldest surviving cultures on earth

 

The Bindjareb people of Noongor nation were the first people of the region. Before Mandurah, they called this place Mandjoogoordap which translates to “meeting place of the heart”.

 

The stories, traditions and secrets of the Bindjareb people are extraordinary. How they were able to find food sources, medicinal properties in plants, and how they preserved these natural resources for future generations will blow your mind.

 

Non-golfing partners at the Mandurah Masters will get to understand all the knowledge the first people of Mandjoogoordap passed down through the generations as well as hear cultural stories from little known places of interest.
