Diving at Rottnest Island

The diversity of fish, coral species and shipwrecks in the waters around Rottnest Island make it one of the most fascinating dive sites to be found in such close proximity to a capital city.

Dive operators based on the mainland conduct day trips and dives at Rottnest Island. Contact the visitor centre for more information about dive tours, equipment for hire and dive site details.

Please take care when diving around coral as it is easily damaged and may take many years to recover. Note that spearguns and handspears are not permitted in the Marine Reserve.

See the marine life section of the site for more information about what you can expect to see on a dive in the Rottnest Island Marine Reserve.

Dive tank refills now available

Courtesy of the Oceanic Group you can now re-fill your dive tank at the proposed site of the new dive shop (coming soon) located just behind the Dome Cafe.

Open 9am - 5.30pm. For all enquiries please contact Oceanic directly.
