Travel to Wadjemup / Rottnest Island for a special ANZAC service like no other.
ANZAC Day holds a special place on the Rottnest Island calendar. With a long military history, we commemorate all who have served and continue to serve.
Wadjemup / Rottnest Island played a role in WWII, and there are many places of significance on the island, in addition to generations of families who have family who have served and were stationed at Rottnest Island during WWI and WWII. Join us to reflect and mark this important day of remembrance with services on the foreshore of Thomson Bay.
Early morning ferry services will be available, departing Fremantle and Hillarys from 4:45 am in time for the Dawn Service on 25 April. Ferry services depart all day from Fremantle and Hillarys to get you to the island on 24 April.
