Flight Guide from Sydney to Port Hedland

A Guide to Port Hedland

Know Before You Go

  • Go on a self-guided street art tour. Port Hedland is home to some of the best street art in the state and has pieces by well-known artists such as Yok and Sheryo. You can get a free street art map from the visitor's centre and spend an afternoon exploring the town's streets and alleyways.
  • Get online. If you don't want to spend money on a data bundle, head to the nearest McDonalds and use their WiFi for free.
  • Sign up for turtle monitoring. From October to March, Hedland's beaches become nests for the endangered flatback sea turtles. You can go on a tour to watch the females lay the eggs at the start of the season, or visit at the beginning of the year to see the hatchlings make their way into the ocean.
  • Drive along the beautiful Pilbara Wildflowers Trail. During the town's winter season, the landscape is awash with colourful wildflowers.
  • You don't need to tip. Australia doesn't have a tipping culture, but if you think the service was exceptional, you can tip between 10-15%. 

Getting Around Port Hedland

  • The only public transportation option is Hedland Bus Lines. But the service only runs on weekdays between Port Hedland and Cooke Point, making it an unreliable way to get around.
  • Another option would be to call a taxi, but it will quickly become expensive especially if you want to explore destinations outside of the CBD.
  • Car hire is the best way to get around. You can rent a vehicle from the airport or one of the companies in the town centre.
