Rottnest Island Experience by Bike

Description

Experience Rottnest Island by Bike from Perth or Fremantle
Rottnest Island’s breathtaking natural beauty has to be one of its biggest assets. This vast natural playground has over 63 beaches and 20 bays so there is a high possibility of finding a secluded beach all to yourself. Rottnest is teeming with more than 135 species of vibrant tropical fish and 20 species of coral. Snorkelling is the best way to explore Rottnest’s underwater playground so be sure to check out the underwater snorkel trail located at Parker Point.

Unleash your adventurous spirit as you feel the breeze in your hair and use pedal power to cycle your way around the island or combine both bike and snorkel for an unforgettable land and sea experience. Ride straight from the jetty for breathtaking views, secluded bays and wonderful beaches. 

After an introductory guided walk on arrival at Rottnest Island you will be left to experience the island at your leisure. There is no tour guide for cycling or snorkelling.
