Karratha is a vibrant city with plenty to do – whether you’re into nature, interested in history, want to take in some culture or simply looking for a nice meal. Searipple runs regular shuttles into the city centre. At Searipple Village we pride ourselves on providing our guests with a wide range of options to keep them entertained during their stay. We’re always planning events to help make Searipple feel like home.
