Ferry ticket - Great day, however the bar code you are given won’t allow you on the ferry .. you have to go to the ticket office to get a boarding pass.. so I nearly didn’t get to Rottnest !

Fast efficient and friendly ferry service. - Really efficient service. Much easier getting the boat from Hillary’s as plenty of parking. Friendly crew on board. Air conditioning and comfortable seats or outside seating if preferred. There was a little bit of a wait in the return journey but we were on holiday so didn’t matter!!

Awesome journey - It was a beautiful day, and I had the chance to see unique animals like the quokka, as well as the Australian crow, whose deep, husky call sounded quite unusual. At the same time, it was deeply saddening to learn about the Aboriginal history of the island.
