Looking for a tattoo studio in Perth? Clients come to The Black Swan from all over Perth, from the northern suburbs to Rockingham and Mandurah, for custom work they can't get anywhere else. Our studio is at 97 South Terrace, Fremantle, about 30 minutes from the Perth CBD on the Fremantle train line or by car.
Why Perth clients choose The Black Swan
- Every tattoo is custom, drawn by your artist for your placement.
- The right artist for your style. We match you with the artist whose work suits your idea.
- A premium studio experience, from consultation to the finished piece.
- Clear quotes before you book, with no surprises on the day.
- Built for big projects: half-day and full-day sessions for sleeves and back pieces.
- Black Swan membership, which turns a monthly payment into tattoo credit.
Big projects, worth the trip
Sleeves, back pieces and full-day sessions are where a studio's experience really shows. If you're planning a large piece, we'll map it out with you up front: how many sessions it needs, roughly what each one costs, and how to space them so your skin heals well in between. Many of our Perth clients book their next session before they leave, so the project keeps moving.
Getting here from Perth
- Train: take the Fremantle line from Perth station to Fremantle, then it's a short walk to South Terrace.
- Car: around 30 minutes from the CBD via Stirling Highway or the Kwinana Freeway, depending on traffic.
Styles we tattoo
Black and grey realism, colour, traditional, neo-traditional, blackwork and script, from small first tattoos to full sleeves and back pieces.

★★★★★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!
