The Port of Esperance is a busy cargo port servicing the inland areas to the west and north. Iron ore, nickel, grain and other heavy materials are shipped from here, and there can be space issues, in which case your ship will anchor and tender ashore. Free shuttle buses take you to the town centre.
As this is a busy cargo port, there is a shuttle bus into the town where you'll find the tourist office, shops and cafes, ATMs and banks, car hire and other facilities. The Esperance Visitor Centre is located within the Museum Village.
