Kingstown Barracks, Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia Kingstown is located 1km south of the Thomson Bay Main Jetty and was a focal point in Rottnest Islands WWII operations as it housed the Australian Army during wartime operations. Kingstown Barracks accommodation was opened for educational use in 1984/1985 and has become a much loved camp destination for many WA schools.
Rottnest Island Salt Lakes, Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia When on the island, a must do activity is to explore the many salt lakes that occupy approximately 10 per cent of the area. Notable ones include Lake Baghdad, Lake Vincent, Herschel Lake, Garden Lake, Government House Lake and Serpentine Lake. These lakes are permanent and are always accessible all year around, other notable lakes that may dry up throughout the summer period include Pink Lake, Lake Sirius, Lake Negri and the twin Pearse Lakes. These salt lake are known to turn pink as a result of the interaction between the algae and salt that grows in the water. When the right mixture of salt and sunlight interact with the algae a red pigment known as beta carotene is accumulated resulting in the pink tinge to the water.
Henrietta Rocks, Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia Henrietta Rocks is an iconic landmark of Rottnest Island and is commonly used as a lookout for a picturesque view of the island. From here visitors can see Dyer Island, the wreck of the Shark and Parker Point. The most notable of these sights is the wreck of the Shark located only a few metres of the shore.

Where to start with what was wrong?
Firstly the buses were irregular. The timetable says every 20 minutes, but we were left at one stop for over an hour.
Overcrowding - is there no limit to how many people you can cram into a moving vehicle.
Maintenance - the bell that is used to tell the driver to stop the bus was out of order, so passengers had to yell!!!
Cost - $20 for the privilege of being sandwiched up against strangers.

A rubbish tour!
Did not honor their itinerary as to what they publish as to what you will see
and the time you have to do it in.
Stop times where virtually halved.
See Kingstown Barracks. Nope just drove past Admission Ticket Free Didn't need one as we didn't go in!
Cape Vlamingh 20 minutes • Admission Ticket Free Open to public no ticket needed.
10 min stop only!
Cathedral Rocks 30 minutes • Admission Ticket Free Open to Public no ticket needed.
15 min stop at best. Didn't even point out New Zealand Fur Seal Colony at stop until we were past it and then only mentioned it!
Rottnest Island Salt Lakes no stop to even take pictures.
Henrietta Rocks no stop again to even take Pics.
Wadjemup Lighthouse 25 minutes • Admission Ticket Free We stopped 10 mins and didn't even get to go to lighthouse could only View and take pictures.
"Don't Waste your money folks not worth it and to top it off we saw one quokka as we drove past it!!!"
Only the driver on board not his fault trying to do commentary and drive at the same time not an easy task!

This tour was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend doing this tour as soon as you get to the island so you can get an idea of the layout and what is actually on the island!
It is such a large island with sooo many separate sight seeing areas and beaches that I feel you need this tour to really know what’s on offer on Rottnest! Our bus driver/guide was so informative and funny!
We had a family member on crutches so bus yours was all we were able to do as hiring bikes wasn’t an option and I’m so happy we did the tour!
We plan on going back (definitely this year sometime most likely summer) and try and stay on the island a few nights and hire bikes and do a full day of our own sight seeing/swimming/snorkeling etc!
The Quokka’s were out and about and we were able to get some close up pictures and experiences with them!
I can’t recommend this enough! Go and experience this amazing island and the tours!
