Staff Recommendations

Bec – Have a dip at The Basin

The Basin is my favourite place to swim on the island with the most beautiful crystal clear water, it’s almost like swimming in a pool. I recommend dropping by Rottnest Pedal & Flipper, just behind the hotel & picking up some snorkeling gear.

Staff Recommendations

Chris – Sunset over the Salt Lakes

A short walk from the settlement – Vlamingh Lookout is the prime spot to take in some of the most beautiful sunsets on the island. With the Wadjemup lighthouse in the distance & a good amount of cloud cover – nothing prepares you for such an amazing sight!

Staff Recommendations

Jen – Lunchtime Jetty Jump

Nothing better than a jetty jump before lunch on a hot day! Head out from the front of Hotel Rottnest onto the Hotel jetty & cool off with a well executed dive into the refreshing Thomson Bay water. Nothing better than finishing up with a cool drink afterwards.
