About Bremer Bay
Bremer Bay is a remote coastal town and locality in the Great Southern region of Western Australia, situated on the state's south coast at the mouth of the Bremer River. It falls within the Shire of Jerramungup and lies approximately 515 kilometres south-east of Perth and 180 kilometres east of Albany. The locality recorded a population of 424 at the 2021 Census, though its holiday population swells dramatically — reportedly reaching nearly 6,500 people over the Christmas and New Year period.
Bremer Bay is beloved by nature lovers and anglers, fronting the Southern Ocean and bordered by the spectacular Fitzgerald River National Park, a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve renowned for its extraordinary wildflower diversity. The town offers a sheltered beach, a boat ramp, and basic local amenities, making it a popular escape for those seeking untouched coastline and remote wilderness. With no rail or regular bus service, Bremer Bay is accessed almost exclusively by private vehicle, lending it an idyllic, off-the-beaten-track character.
