The Black Swan Tattoo Studio sits at 97 South Terrace, Fremantle, right on the strip, a short walk from Fremantle station and the markets. We were set up with one goal: to redefine what you should expect from a tattoo studio, from the first message to the finished piece.
Custom tattoos, drawn for you
Every tattoo we do is custom. Tell us your idea and your artist designs it for your body and placement, usually 1 to 2 days before your appointment, so it gets their full attention. We go over it together on the day and don't start until you're completely happy.
Styles we tattoo
- Black and grey realism: portraits, animals and detailed pieces
- Colour work, small to large scale
- Traditional and neo-traditional
- Blackwork and script
- Sleeves, back pieces and full-day sessions, as well as smaller pieces
Clean, safe and compliant
We operate under Western Australia's Skin Penetration Code of Practice. Every needle and single-use item is disposed of after each client, and each station is cleaned and set up with fresh barrier protection and PPE.
Getting to the studio
We're on South Terrace in central Fremantle. Fremantle train station is a short walk away, and there are public car parks and street parking nearby. Clients regularly come from East Fremantle, Cockburn, Melville, Cottesloe and across Perth.
How booking works
- Send your idea through our booking form: placement, size and reference pictures.
- We match you with an artist and send a clear quote.
- Lock in your date with a $200 deposit, which comes off the final price.
- Tattoo day: your design is drawn fresh, and we tweak it together.

★★★★★Dayne has always been a fast and incredibly talented tattoo artist, he always listens to what I, the client, wants and creates extremely unique and incredible pieces, that last and still turn heads years later. During the tattoo process Dayne always keeps me comfortable, cracking jokes, offering breaks and being supportive even at the tail end of an 8 hour sit.
Joel · Premium Member
★★★★★I've now had six pieces done by Dayne over the last few years, and I already know any future pieces will be booked in with him or one of his artists. I've got complete trust in Dayne's creativity and judgement, and I know I'm going to leave the studio stoked with the result every time. Couldn't recommend The Black Swan enough!
