Gracetown is a small town in Western Australia. It is located south of the Perth central business district, and north-west of the township of Margaret River in the Augusta-Margaret River Shire Council area on the coast at Cowaramup Bay. ==History== The area was initially used as a holiday area and later in 1957 it was proposed that the area should be developed as a camping and caravan park. Instead the government decided that the area would be developed as a townsite. The area was surveyed in 1961 and the bulk of the townsite was planned. Sale of lots within the townsite occurred in 1963, the same year the town was gazetted. It was named in honour of local Western Australian heroine Grace Bussell. The Cape to Cape Track runs across the beach to the west of the town and is one of the few towns located along the track.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cape to Cape Track - Track Facts )〕 There is a general store located in the town that provides a variety of goods and limited services. There are many holiday homes within the town that are available to rent all year round. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gracetown, Western Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
