'Rotto' is a popular destination for locals and visitors alike, located just 18km off the coast from Fremantle. It's just a short ferry trip away from Fremantle (south of Perth), Hillarys (north of Perth) or down the Swan River from Perth city. Once there it feels like another world entirely and is a perfect destination for a day trip or a relaxing longer stay.
