THREE DAYS & TWO NIGHTS
IN ROCKINGHAM
Start with the splendour of
Shoalwater Islands Marine Park on
a glass-bottom boat cruise with
Perth Wildlife Encounters. Glide
across turquoise waters as you
admire the rugged coastlines of
Penguin, Seal and Bird Islands. Keep
an eye out for playful dolphins,
sealions, pelican rookeries and
soaring birds of prey during the
one-hour cruise. Step ashore to
wrap up the tour with a guided
wildlife walk on Penguin Island/
Goolidja Goorda to learn about
the conservation park's distinctive
landscapes and environment.
Afterwards, refuel on the
mainland at Pengos Café with a
gourmet burger before heading
out for a snorkel at Point Peron or
for the ocean lovers, book in a dive
with Scubanautics Diving Academy.
In the afternoon, relax at Peel
Estate Wines, the region's oldest
winery. Stroll the grounds, enjoy a
tasting, and then head to Cheeky

for dinner.
Begin your Rockingham
adventure learning to kitesurf with
WA Surf. Take a two hour beginners
class or if you’re more experienced
there are advanced options.
Enjoy a long lunch on the
boardwalk overlooking the water
at The Knock Restaurant and
this afternoon check into your
accommodation. Rockingham
offers a wide range of options to
suit every traveller. Stay right by
the water at Cee & See Caravan
Park, or Hotel Clipper provides great
value budget accommodation,
without compromising on comfort.
Rockingham Apartments offer
self-contained comfort or if you
prefer, relax at Quest Rockingham
serviced apartments.
This evening, take a leisurely
stroll along the Rockingham
Foreshore before indulging in
dinner at Rústico Tapas & Wine
Bar. With its lively atmosphere,
Mediterranean share plates
and sangria jugs, it’s the perfect
place to toast your 昀椀rst day in
Rockingham.
It’s day two, and if you’re visiting
in summer, head to Perth Wake

lesson on the training lake before
moving onto the main course, while
experienced riders can enjoy jumps
and rails. Refuel at the on-site café
before heading next door to Perth

Start your 昀椀nal day with
breakfast overlooking the ocean
at Chandlers Kitchen, before
jumping on a jet ski with Jet Ski

riding your own Yamaha VX jet ski.
