Fremantle is an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of Western Australia.
The district is located in the inner south-west of Perth, centring on the port of Fremantle.
Fremantle is a historically safe Labor seat, though the Greens WA have polled well in recent times. Labor held the seat from 1924 until a 2009 by-election which was lost to Greens candidate Adele Carles. Carles quit the party in the following year, sitting as an independent for the remainder of her term. The seat returned to Labor at the 2013 election.
