Munda biddi means "through the forest" in Aboriginal dialect. This 1 000 km track links Perth to Albany and offers cyclists the opportunity to ride off the beaten tracks on the same principle as the Bibbulmun Track.

This is the official stage of the two local footy teams, the Fremantle Dockers and the Eagles. A new stage is planned for 2014.

Come and try the national sport on the West Coast: surfing! The Scarborough School, established in 1986, is the oldest surf school in the world and the number one in the area! All equipment is provided. They offer courses for all levels. Check out their website for more information. Scarborough beach is great for swimming, and is also a favorite beach for Perth residents for windsurfing or kitesurfing.

Opened in 2018, Optus stadium is primarily dedicated to the Australian Football League, the national sport that is a cousin of Gaelic soccer. The stadium made a splash in 2021 by hosting the AFL final, traditionally played in then-confined Melbourne. There is almost no parking at the stadium, on match days everything is done to encourage public transport, as well as the use of the new Matagarup Bridge in the shape of pairs of swans embracing. The stadium can be visited and also offers the Vertigo experience, where you can suspend yourself above the void!
