Rottnest Island Snorkel & Sail Tour

Experience the magic of Rottnest Island on a luxury sailing catamaran anchoring in the island's top snorkelling spots close to shore. Sail through stunningly beautiful bays then dive right into a snorkeler’s paradise with up to 2.5 hours to soak up the stunning natural beauty of this corner of the world.

The 'Capella' luxury catamaran is fitted out with snorkel equipment, kayaks and stand up paddle boards for maximum fun both on and under the water. Discover up to 400 different species of fish, coral, shells and sea grass that lie beneath. Keep an eye out for dolphins, stingrays, sea birds and the curious Australian Sea Lion. With a population of just 15,000 and found only on the WA coastline, these little guys are an absolute joy to watch as they flip and somersault through the water.

If you're feeling adventurous, the huge cargo net is awaiting any takers or simply kick back and relax on the comfortable trampolines up front, or the large rear seated deck. Rottnest Island has so much more to offer than just quokka selfies! Let the friendly and experienced crew show you a perspective you won’t get staying on land.
