2018 – 2019 Rottnest Express Product Information Catalogue

Rottnest Express, taking you to Perth’s Island Playground from 3 convenient locations One fantastic island, so many unique and diverse experiences. Welcome to Rottnest Island, where family fun, wildlife encounters, or time to relax awaits you. Located just 19km off the mainland, Rottnest Island offers endless possibilities…. Rottnest Island is an ‘A’ Class Nature Reserve and is widely regarded as one of Western Australia’s “best kept secrets”. It is home to some of the most spectacular white sandy beaches, secluded bays, unique wildlife, including the famous Quokka and colony of New Zealand Fur Seals, shipwrecks and a fascinating and colourful history. Rottnest Island has something for everyone.

The top 5 reasons to visit Rottnest Island…

1. Rottnest’s unique array of wildlife – Standing just 12 inches tall, the Quokka is Rottnest’s most famous inhabitant. With around 8,000-12,000 inhabiting the island, you’re sure to spot one! View the annual migration of Humpback Whales from September – November, get up close and personal with a colony of New Zealand Fur Seals at Cathedral Rocks, plus Ospreys and pods of Dolphins.

2. White sandy beaches - The Island’s breathtaking natural beauty has to be one of Rottnest’s biggest assets. This vast natural playground has over 63 beaches and 20 bays so there is a high possibility of finding a secluded beach all to yourself. Rottnest is teeming with more than 135 species of vibrant tropical fish and 20 species of coral. Snorkelling is the best way to explore Rottnest’s underwater playground. Be sure to check out the underwater snorkel trails located at Little Salmon Bay and Parker Point.

3. Activities galore - Jump onboard a 90 minute Rottnest Adventure Tour and explore the island by sea or feel the wind in your hair as you use pedal power to explore the island’s many treasures by bike. With no cars on the island bike riding would have to be the most popular and fun way to explore and get around. Take to the air on a 10-minute joy flight or visit Pedal and Flipper store to grab your very own surfboard or stand up paddle board for the day.

4. Family fun – Rottnest Island has a great range of activities to keep the family entertained for hours! Climb, jump, splash n slide on the floating aqua park in Thomson Bay (open November to April). Located just a short walk from the main settlement is the family fun park; Mini putt-putt, trampolines, air soccer, ping pong plus a variety of family games are available. At certain times of the year you can watch your favourite movie at the Rottnest Picture Hall.

5. Historical Rottnest – A guiding light, a defender of the peace, hunting ground and prison. Rottnest boasts an incredibly rich heritage. Take a tour up to Oliver Hill on the Captain Hussey, sit back on a Discovery Coach Tour or view relics at the Rottnest Museum, Lomas Cottage and Pilot Boat House.
