This ferry is your gateway to an epic wildlife show! Spot New Zealand's fur seals, seabirds, seasonal humpback whales, and dolphins frolicking about.

Wadjemup/Rottnest Isaland was great. The crossing both ways was very smooth and staff aboard Sealink Ferry very professional. The captain was really great. Ticketing was an issue however. There were no instructions that I had to change the electronic ticket to a paper one (check in) and no one was there to meet at the meeting point.

A fantastic day out, we loved everything about the day, the boat ride to the island was fun and informative, the quokka are just divine and the island is just beautiful. Thanks for a great day.

Loved Rottnest, staff were very friendly, but had I know this was an international company charging international transaction fees, to book in Australia for an Australian attraction, I would't have booked. Very sneaky.

Well organised transport, activities and friendliness of staff on island. Some issues with ticketing process as I did not realise had to have tickets printed. Some problems as quite a few people had to go to office to have tickets printed as ferry due to leave; however, staff af office were focused on discussing bookings for later sailings with other people. All worked out in the end. We enjoyed a marvellous time.

What to do at Rottnest Island?
