⚓💙 78 Years of the Blessing of the Fleet — what a wonderful Fremantle tradition! 🇮🇹💙🐟
There’s something pretty special about Freo and its connection to the sea, and the Blessing of the Fleet is a beautiful reminder of just that. Sunday was such a wonderful day to celebrate this special occasion and it was so lovely to see such a magnificent turn out!
For 78 years, this much-loved tradition has brought our community together to celebrate our fishing families, honour the hard work of those who make their living from the ocean, and wish our local fleet safe journeys and a safe return home.
It’s about more than boats and the sea — it’s about family, community, history and the traditions that make Fremantle the place we all know and love. Traditions like this continue to bring us together year after year! In 2 years, we celebrate the 80th year!
Here’s to the people who keep these traditions alive and to many more years of this wonderful Freo tradition! 💙🌊
