Like boats?
There are so many lovely boats here. Mandurah has a lot of rich houses on canals (a bit like the Gold Coast on the east side for those who know) and they all have boats. Here's just a little one, I couldn't resist lol.

Thanks for any help.
Outside peak hours you can get there in less than an hour, so you'll need no coffee breaks. See www.whereis.com.au for directions.
Can't help with accomodation, but check http://www.westernaustralia.com/ www.holiday-wa.net/mandurah.htm http://www.westaussie.com/region.php?t=1&z=8
There is a good, new tourist information centre in Mandurah, it's near the brand new theatre by the waters edge. The guys in there were very helpful to us, came away with loads of leaflets.
The drive from Perth is lovely, find the lake side route and you can do a loop around it.

As mentioned above it doesn't take long to get there from Perth at all, you could get a coffee once you get into town.
Can't remember if anyone above mentioned but I had a look from hostels and only came up with one-
The Rooftop Inn, 113 Mandurah Terrace, Mandurah, +61 (8) 9586-8897
They don't have a website.
I'd recommend the Atrium as a cheap hotel in Mandurah, have stayed there severel times. Don't know of any hostels. Details and other stuff about Mandurah on my Mandurah page http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/9a93e/1c95ee/
I'd expect it to take a bit more than an hour unless you are going to break the speed limit, 1 1/4- 1 1/2. You could go through Rockingham and have a walk on the beach or a coffee in the sea front cafes if you like a break and are not in a hurry.

Hi From Perth City to Mandurah should take 50 minutesor less if you travel after 9:15am as you will miss the peak travel time, if you go an hour earlier add another 10 minutes. No need to stop for a coffee do so when you reach Mandurah, either The Dome Coffee shop on the esplanade as you enter Mandurah , or The Merchant on the Esplanade by the water near the old bridge.
No need to use a website , go to mt VT page on Mandurah.
Good Luck, Mike

Port Bouvard Marina has comfortable houseboats for hire and this is a different experience exploring the 100 square kilometres of the beautiful and safe waters of the Peel Inlet and Mandurah Estuary. The housboats are easy to drive, no experience is necessary and you are never out of sight of land. You can even catch some local crabs for lunch or dinner during the summer season, or stop at some of the many jetties and have coffee or a meal at a cafe or restaurant.
The name Hamlet, means small village and usually without a church. The setting is a typical hamlet you would find in the valleys and hills. The models for this setting are on a 1:20 scale.

This little pub is from Avebury, Wiltshire and is typical of many Red Lion Pubs found throughout England. Built during the 17th century, the building has half timbered walls and a thatched roof. Avebury is known for Neolithic stone wall that circles the town and dates back to 2400BC.

The Maze is near the entrance to the gardens and if you follow the route they give you, you can try your hand at getting lost at the end. The maze takes up 1000 square metres.
