There are many great beaches on the island. All visible as you cycle the island. Any one is a great place to stop and swim. Warning take your own drinks once you leave the ferry area. There is little fresh water on the island.

Made this our last last spot when cycling around Rottnest island. Spent the most time here after a long day of exploring. Good to spend some extended time on the nice beach, does get pretty popular sometimes but it's so nice. Great snorkeling and diving too at each end around the rocks.

Stunning white sand beach with great snorkelling! Easily accessible via the Hop On and Hop Off bus or a short 20mins bike ride from town centre, which is part of the fun getting there!

A spectacular section of the island's coast. We saw osprey, mutton birds, pelicans, gulls, terns, cormorants, and others. We saw giant black skinks. There were dolphins frolicking in the surf. We could see two seals get out of the water and clamber ashore on the rocky outcrop just off from the viewing platform. Sitting and watching the constant waves, and keeping an eye out for wildlife was a buzz, especially when we clearly saw whales blowing air.
