Tapping is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Wanneroo.

It came into being in the early 1990s as a subdivision of Wanneroo, originally as part of the Carramar estate.

Tapping was chosen as the suburb name in honour of an early settler family in the Wanneroo area.

[4][5] This increase can be directly attributed to continued housing development within the suburb on previously undeveloped land previously used for farming and horticulture activities.

The suburb is served by bus routes that provide connections to the Yanchep line via either Whitfords or Joondalup railway stations.
