Corporate experiences for every season

Wadjemup / Rottnest Island is a destination for any time of the year, with a Mediterranean climate.

During the summer (December to February), Wadjemup’s temperature hovers around the mid to high 20s (°C). The island is a welcome retreat from the often-higher temperatures of Perth city and the clear, turquoise bays provide ideal swimming and snorkelling spots. 

In the cooler months, the island is a few degrees warmer than Perth, the average being a pleasant 19°C. The water even stays warm, with the Leeuwin Current flowing along the Western Australian coastline and making for refreshing winter swims. 

Spending time on Wadjemup / Rottnest Island during the winter months involves surfing, exploring meaningful historic sites, and walking amongst the natural world teeming with wildlife.
