Perth To Rottnest Island Roundtrip Ferry Ticket

Great day on the island quokkas everywhere around the Main Street so you won’t be disappointed in not seeing one. Hop on bus was booked out took the other bus service which was good except some of the drivers packed the bus with people to an unsafe level

The staff is very accommodating. Due to traffic, we were late and missed our boat. They booked us on the next one with no hassle

This was a great way to spend the day on Wadjemup/Rottnest Island with flexibility to explore. It was easy to find the ferry, and the skipper did a great job giving us commentary on the way out. I only wish there were a later return ferry so we could have spent longer on the island, but I know that we were a little too early in the season for it.

Value for money!! Had the best day.

Seemed expensive for just the transport. There was a commentary but this was only audible upstairs. However the catamaran was very stable even in the bad weather.

Great tour company, would suggest going with these people! Thought we had booked hotel pick-up weeks prior, apparently not, but it was a quick and easy fix over the phone. The boat journey there was a bumpy one, especially after picking up the Fremantle guests 😅, but the captain gave intriguing insight into Perth and the buildings/landmarks/neighbourhoods, etc. After arriving, we explored at our own pace for 20-25 mins and picked up some ice cream before going on the train to the other already-included tour about the history of Rottnest and its involvement in the war(?). Very informative and interesting. The bus on return provided lunch too, whilst also showing us to the lighthouse and other places around the island. We did have to get ready early for this (6am-ish) but it was worth it.

Great day unfortunately overshadowed by the weather. Excellent commentary and customer serve by boat crew who took a considered approach to meeting customer needs. Highly recommend this tour in calmer weather.

Easy to find the ticket office. Staff and crew on board were friendly and informative. Ferry ran on time.

Tripadvisor did not send me any details for the timing of the return ferry after booking. I had to call the phone number for Sealink to email me the itinerary and barcode needed to board. Good for cycling and better in summer because it's windy and cold.

Lovely return ferry trip to Rottnest Island. Friendly staff and great commentary as we travelled along the Swan River. Enjoyed a wine & beer on the return leg - good selection and a nice way to watch the sunset as we cruised into Perth.

Fabulous place to visit. We hired electric bikes on the island and made a full cycle round the whole island. The bikes were great, but somewhat expensive. Very beautiful place, rich in history and culture, with plenty to see. Fabulous beaches and the Quakkas are very time l take near the main visitor centre. The staff on board the ferry were great too. Highly recommended.

It is a straightforward ferry trip along the beautiful Swan river towards Rottnest Island. The captain spoke and told us some nuggets of trivia along the features of the river. Upon docking at Rottnest Island, you are free to roam the island so take note and do not be mistaken there is no tour or bus to bring you around. I loved the island and the beaches and wonderfully adorable quokkas. Would book again for the convenience!

Awesome trip. Got a bike. Cycled around. Best way of seeing island.

Easy booking, lovely staff. Beautiful scenery. We actually took the ferry from Perth to Rottnest then back to Fremantle. It was very rough on the way there and the staff made us very comfortable, even giving out zooper doopers once it was calm.

On time departure and friendly crew.

Very easy with professional staff who were polite and professional.

A stress less fairy ride to Rottnest Island. Disappointed in Rottnest with the commercial influence, too much. Poor Quokkas.

We booked the SeaLink ferry from Perth to Thompson Bay return with a bike hire. We thoroughly enjoyed the slow cruise down the Swan River and then things got a little rough across the straight but the catamaran moves along quite quickly and it only takes 30 minutes. The crew was all very friendly and chill, bike pickup was painless and bikes were in good working order but have relatively small wheels and only 8 speeds. We cycled all the way around the island including out to Cathedral Rock and clocked 28km. We are fit, but still found the cycling quite hard to due limited gears on bikes, wind, and constantly rolling terrain. Factor in most people are also packing various amount of gear as well. I would rate the cycling as moderate and it was only 23' today, if it was 30' the majority of people would not be able to complete this entire loop. The other issue with Rotto is, although there are an unlimited number of beautiful beaches, virtually none have change rooms, showers, or drinking water. This make the logistics of cycling and snorkeling tricky. I would suggest pick your activity, either you cycle or you snorkel but not both. If you want to snorkel just forget bicycles and just ride the trolley busses with all your gear.

It was easy to book and they offered ferry tickets when everyone else was sold out. Easy to download tickets with clear instructions. The return time on the ticket wasn’t included so we had to ask about that, but it was fine.

The ferry was comfortable, and it all ran on time. We caught the 8:30am ferry, and chose a free hotel pick up which was pretty seamless. The captain had a good funny, well used, repertoire as we cruised towards Fremantle along the Swan River. Would happily travel with SeaLink again!

Great way to book a ferry ticket with more flexible cancellation than directly through Sealink’s site which is why I booked through Viator in case my plans changed. Very easy to exchange voucher for tickets at check-in and very smooth experience, highly recommend!

So this is where Perth comes to find its sanctuary – an island a few kilometres off the coast of Fremantle where there are zero cars – only buses and about 10,000 cyclists. It’s a lovely place, safe, interesting and has great beach’s and clean water. We took electric bikes and felt super smug as we zoomed up the hills (there are a few) ahead of panting traditional cyclists – and they were tough as it was hot at over 32c. I was amazed at how busy it was and especially how many people can be packed in the ferry – our cavernous boat took 400. A fun day.

Seamless experience end to end, easy on and off and the schedule suited us well giving a full day. Would recommend for sure!

A pleasant experience. Local stories told over the tannoy by the skipper - thankyoy

We had a wonderful day on Rottnest, the views were stunning and did come across a few Quokkas. The Captain was very informative and humorous on the trip. Would recommend Sealink.

Sealink's service went off without a hitch. Some confusion at start about where and how we line up to board but otherwise ok. Boat crew were friendly & helpful, boat was clean, beverage options fine. I had no problems with booking online. Rottnest Island as a destination has its problems but that's for another post.

We hired bikes on the island, wasn't ready for a very hilly ride. But, with the scenery it was worth it!

Everything was well organised, the ferry was clean and comfy, and it all ran on time. If you’re on the 8:30am ferry, they even offer hotel pick-up from selected CBD spots, which made the early start so much easier. And the captain was hilarious — his commentary had everyone laughing and really set the tone for a great day. Would definitely travel with SeaLink again!

We were told to stand outside our hotel for an early pick up. After being there earlier than the allocated time we waited. There was nobody parked out the front of the hotel. A car pulled up down a bit from the hotel leaving it free for the Sealink bus to collect us from outside the front. However he parked in the bus stop down the road. He would have seen us waiting. My friend walked down there after a few minutes and realised that was the pick up bus. We walked down there with our luggage and he was the worst customer service person I've ever dealt with. He told us he was about to leave as that is where they always park as there are always cars parked out the front. However on this day there were no cars parked out the front! He wasn't helpful to other passengers getting on and when we got there he opened the ramp and didn't say a work. No goodbyes and no thank you.

Great ferry service - easy to use, very convenient in that they'll take your luggage to your accommodation for you (and pick it up), and that you can leave from Perth CBD (and get a nice, commentated tour out of the harbor) and return to Fremantle to check out the markets. Pretty solid all around.

Highly recommend! The process from buying tickets to the trip itself was seamless and easy. I wasn't able to find my tickets on my email, so I simply went to the front desk and they were able to print off for me.

Ticket included complimentary pick up this was not honoured. Nobody contacted me to arrange pick up from hotel. When I notified them they said it was too late. We made our own way there and back. When the tour finished it was a long hot day and we had to walk back to hotel which was utterly exhausting a good half hour walk!!

I had to change the ferry booking twice this was fuss free and easy to do via email, the sailing and return were prompt and pleasant with a good commentary whilst navigating the Swan River.

We did the 1.5 hour ride from Perth/Barrack. Great views of gorgeous houses. Lots of boats and jet skiers to watch. Rottnest itself was fantastic. It was quite hot and i would recommend bikes to keep off flies OR get the hop on hop off pass at the first stop (only option - can’t buy it mid route). The scenery and beaches were stunning!! Quokkas were so cute and seen mostly at the settlement area. We thought if the quokkas as the raccoon of America (cute and will eat anything). Definitely go see Rottnest.

These people are just superb. Everything ran like clockwork and the crew were super friendly and professional. A superb day and definitely recommend this operator. First rate.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Must-Do Experience on Rottnest Island! Rotto Rackets Pickleball is an absolute highlight of Rottnest Island and a must-do for anyone visiting. The atmosphere is fun, relaxed, and welcoming, whether you’re a complete beginner or already love the game. The courts are set in a beautiful location, and playing pickleball surrounded by Rottnest’s stunning scenery makes the experience even more special. The team running it are fantastic – friendly, energetic, and great at explaining the rules and keeping everyone involved. They create a really inclusive vibe, so you instantly feel comfortable and ready to have fun. It’s the perfect mix of exercise, laughs, and social interaction. If you’re looking for something active and different to do on the island (and a break from cycling and beaches), this is it. We had an amazing time and would 100% do it again on our next trip to Rotto. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely time, though the flies were terrifically annoying! I strongly advise travelers to invest in a fly net prior to your summer trip to the island. Our time there was too short. I would advise going as early as possible on the first boat at 7:00.

Wonderful trip to Rottnest which is beautiful. Ferry was very efficient and well organised. Choppy ride because of a storm but staff were wonderful. Special mention for El who looking after so many passengers who were unwell and was such a calming and friendly influence. I was astonished to learn this was only her first week on the role. She seemed so well prepared. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to Rottnest and using Sealink! (Captain Cook Cruises)

Great trip to and from the island. Not quite round trip as return ferry only took us to Fremantle. Probably a bit late in booking it. Excellent knowledgeable staff on board

This was a fabulous trip, excellent value for a river cruise followed by the Fremantle to Rottnest crossing. We booked the hop on hop off bus as well in order to get to see the sights. We experienced the beautiful scenery, landscapes and incredible seascapes. Bonus of seeing a family of Ospreys nesting was a highlight. The whole visit was a wonderful experience including the Quokkas

Excellent service booked online. Had questions so contacted directly. Booked luggage transport from Perth ferry to hotel on island and return. Was contacted the day before to offer bus transport from Perth hotel to Ferry. Staff excellent, trip well commentated. Comfortable seats.

Purchasing the tickets through Viator is just the first step in the process. We arrived at the pier with plenty of time to spare , which was good because we had to present our Viator ticket to the company window to get a paper ticket before we could board the vessel. No biggie, but it would have been nice to know before hand.

What a wonderful adventure and so easy to organise.The friendly staff made us feel so welcome and happy to help in anyway they could

Great service, staff were very friendly , just a day trip with friends from interstate, food on Rottnest was very nice, plenty to choose from, friendly Quokkas and seagulls

Staff are friendly Pick ups on time Brings you straight from Perth to Rottnest so perfect if you are in the city Must do

Exceptional service from Sealink. Sealink was super helpful when our first booking was cancelled due to bad weather. Sealink quickly rebooked us. The check in process was easy and friendly. And when our bag was mistakenly taken by another passenger, Katrina Green from Sealink went out of her way, after hours, to get our bag back and bring it to us that same night. Outstanding service.

Loved the quokkas, the crowd and seagulls were a bit rude. If you’re a caravan bee, would suggest getting bus or train into city as parking is expensive or for small cars only.

Such a great service and crew, very informative on the journey letting you know what your passing on your way to and from the island and professional. We felt looked after and safe, well worth the money. Give these guys a pay rise 10/10

The service was wonderful. The Island is beautiful. Many things to do! The food was good but expensive. The weather is always windy.
