Marmion Avenue is a 38 kilometre arterial road in the northern coastal suburbs of Perth, Western Australia, linking Trigg in the south with Yanchep in the north. It forms the majority of State Route 71 along with West Coast Highway, which it joins onto at its southern terminus.
Its speed limit is almost exclusively 80 km/h, with only brief 70 km/h sections through the suburbs of Karrinyup and Butler. It is a four-lane dual carriageway for most of its length, but reverts to a two-lane single carriageway in between Merriwa and Yanchep. The road generally runs parallel to the Indian Ocean coastline, as well as the arterial highways Mitchell Freeway and Wanneroo Road in the east.
