About Event
WA’s own island paradise, have fun with aqua adventure activities and relax in the beautiful surroundings on WADSA’s Island Escape Rottnest Xperience. Rottnest has a variety of activities available. Learn about the history of Rottnest’s, wrecks & reefs and see the adorable quokkas. Go snorkeling, cycling, and stand up paddle boarding. Gotta love Rotto!
Location
Rottnest’s beaches are like a slice of paradise, with blindingly white sand, water so clear you can see down to your toes, and majestic coves formed by naturally sculpted rocks. In all, there are 63 secluded, sandy havens, linked by paved riding and walking trails. The Basin, Geordie Bay and Little Parakeet Bay are favorites close to Thomson Bay settlement, while those towards West End have a raw, rugged appeal. From certain spots, you’ll see humpback whales breaching (they migrate from September to November), seals floating or dolphins bobbing. Beneath the waterline, there are numerous species of coral, tropical fish and abundant seagrasses.
The main attraction, of course, is the highly photogenic quokka, a friendly marsupial that appears to smile. Not only the subject of countless celebrity selfies, the Western Australian icon is also responsible for the island’s name: 17th century Dutch sailors mistook the cute creatures for large rats.

Accommodation
In November we will be staying in the Governors Circle houses in Kingston Barracks.
Governors Circle is situated away from the main settlement and just a stone’s throw from the Kingstown Barrack and were originally built for soldiers during World War II. To see where you will be staying click here.
