Overview

Highlights

Little Salmon Bay is one of the most popular bays on Rottnest Island. It is a favourite spot for families as it is sheltered and calm and is also a great spot for snorkelling. Snorkelers can follow a snorkel trail to learn more about the different types of fish on Rottnest Island.

Little Salmon Bay is easy to get to as it is a designated stop on the Rottnest Island bus route. If you prefer to cycle, it's only a few kilometres from the Thomson Bay Settlement. Simply relax and enjoy the pristine sandy white shores and crystal clear water that is on offer at Little Salmon Bay.
