Set between the Indian Ocean, the Moresby ranges to the east and the Chapman Valley to the north, Geraldton is ideally situated for a wide range of leisure activities.

Known as “Sun City”, Geraldton is an aquatic playground ideal for weekend getaways, family holidays or a quiet break to recharge your batteries. Geraldton's seaside location, Mediterranean climate, first class accommodation and dining, all mixed with the activity of a city, makes Geraldton a place worth visiting. Wildflowers, the history of Geraldton and nearby Houtman Abrolhos Islands are features that draw visitors to this vibrant destination.

Pristine beaches are a favorite for aquatic activities and are a favoured location for windsurfers and snorkelling. Locally caught lobster, prime beef and a variety of ocean fish combined with locally produced wines from nearby wineries, gives a unique flavour to the dining experience in Geraldton.

Geraldton offers all of the cultural, entertainment and shopping facilities of a major regional city. A port city, Geraldton is the administrative centre of the mid west’s diverse industry base from a world leading rock fishery to agriculture and gold production.

Other industries include mining, fishing, manufacturing, construction, and tourism. Geraldton is the business hub of the mid west region.

Over three million tonnes of grain and minerals are shipped from the port each year. From the city foreshore and car parks, huge ships can be seen entering the port from the open sea.
