I happened to time my visit to Geraldton right, and was here on a Sunday, so popped along to the Platform Markets.
There's plenty of parking and the markers are free to browse, and there's a huge variety of stalls and goodies to choose from.
There's fresh fruit and vegies, books, candles, tea towels and linen, plant and herbs for your garden, cupcakes, niknaks and a variety of many other items.
Highly recommended in Geraldton.

Fantastic selection of stalls & items for sale. As well as local arts & crafts there was also a good selection of fruit, veg, eggs, preserves. Unfortunately a lot of the fruit & veg was wrapped in plastic which prevented us from buying it. Was great to see a few health stalls too, including fresh chai & turmeric lattes. There were also lots of plants & seedlings. I loved the shops that were a permanent fixture & if I was a local, I would jump at the chance to have a sound healing. Ample parking & great location.

With most shops closed on a Sunday the Markets were the ideal place to spend some time in Geraldton. A good variety of stalls and food trailers. Items were a bit more expensive here than Perth market prices but still an enjoyable time.

First of all, I'm a market fan, especially for fresh food and finding unique gifts for friends and family (and myself). The use of the old railway station adds a unique back drop for local vendors. The fruit and veg are local and fresh, including organic. There are some amazing unique items for sale, made by locals, usually upcycling and re-purposing from nearby resources. Look out for the young lady upcycling fishing rope into baskets and mats. Drop in to see the very talented A Girl in Her Shed for genuinely awesome framed gifts. You'll find food and coffee (look for the waffles at the front of the station). Buy a repurposed book. You are bound to find something you want to take home.

Not pram or stroller friendly. Or kid friendly really. People just walk over the top of them. The reason being there are just SO MANY stalls squeezed onto the platform, which is great for variety. Totally recommend sneaking down WITHOUT the kids to get the best out of the Railway Markets. And Sunday is the best day. Saturday is a little sleepy and stall holders set up late and pack up early. Something for everyone.

I visited these markets in April 2019 and was most impressed by them
They were well laid out and quite novel
The variety of home grown and home made products were amazing
The pricing was excellent and you could still bargain with the stall holders
So if you are visiting Geraldton on a weekend the markets are well worth a visit
Ideal to snap up some great buys

These markets are great, always changing always having new stuff including food and produce, held at the Railway Station original built in 1901 it's protected and great to catch up with people.

Great use of an old railway station, plenty of variety, food, crafts and produce. Not a lot of walking involved. Lucky we were there on Sunday when it was on.

What a happening little place, such a good variety of food and drinks, pulled pork from the Burnt Barrel, amazing cheeses and curds from a local goat farmer, greah and healthy bread from a local baker, unique icecream from a local producer, home grown fruit, veg, eggs etc. Love the gathering of the small solo businesses/farmers
