Changes

A fair amount of people are sleeping on beaches or in their vans in Freo, you can find a crew of backpackers usually sitting on South Beach playing guitars, friendly to join, also there are free barbeques and toilets there. Though it's illegal to camp (including sleeping in your van in the carpark) on South Beach and the rangers do check, and will wake you up at 2am and make you move away. It's possible to go into the dunes and pitch a small tent in the quieter beaches south of there (towards CY OÇonnor Beach) out of sight. Just by CY O'Connor beach is an incredible old abandoned [http://abandonedplaceswww.livejournal6000times.com/18102672009/12/fremantle-south-fremantle-abandoned.html| power station] which is an amazing spot. It has been graffiti'd amazingly, but recently has a new fence installed which is a little harder to jump, but it's still a special spot to explore.
