Tourists have been banned from taking photos at a popular Western Australian landmark made famous on Instagram - but not all is what it seems.

Perth events producer and comedian Ronan Freeburn decided to poke fun at the amount of visitors flocking to the humble Blue Boat House off Mounts Bay Road. 

He erected a sign reading: 'Photography of the blue boat house exceeded. For an alternative 'Perth landmark', please visit the Bell Tower'.

'Pretend it's good. Take lots of photos. Post it all over social media. Make it go viral as well.'

The sign, which even featured the City of Perth logo, was the handiwork of Mr Freeburn who forked out $250 to have it printed.

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Mr Freeburn said the prank was all 'just a bit of fun' to try and encourage tourists to visit other spots in his city.
