Marine Terrace is a road on the southern side of the built up area of Fremantle, Western Australia. It is named for its location alongside the water front. [2]
At various stages in its history it has had significant processions along the terrace. [3] The trees that currently line the terrace are not found in early photographs. [4]
In 1896 a quarantine station was set up at South Beach, at the end of the road, to process camels shipped in to Western Australia. [2] The camels would arrive at the Long Jetty, be driven along Marine Terrace, and then made to camp at the quarantine site. [2] The animals would later be taken to the Goldfields. [2]
It is bound by Esplanade Park [5] on its west side and has the Esplanade Hotel on the east side, along with a number of other heritage listed buildings. [6] It is also part of the south west boundary of the Fremantle West End Heritage area.
