Rottnest Island is without question the premier diving location adjacent to Perth. No other Australian capital city
can boast such a stunning recreational facility right on its doorstep.
With more than 200 individual dive sites to choose from Rottnest offers pristine diving conditions regardless of
weather.
Torches are recommended for the Rottnest dives with plenty of soft corals and critters to be seen in the large
limestone caverns.
Once underwater the diver can experience massive limestone caverns and tunnels interspersed with
meadows of seagrass, sponges and soft corals.
Warm subtropical currents ensure that the marine environment surrounding Rottnest is one of the richest on
earth.
The island itself is a rich mosaic of history and culture interspersed with varied recreational activities to ensure
an interesting interlude for even the most jaded traveller. The quiet bays and scenic walks offer something for
everyone and after the excitement of the morning diving, are charming contrasts.
