About Rottnest Island
Rottnest Island (Wajuk: Wadjemup), nicknamed "Rotto", is a 19-square-kilometre (7.3 sq mi) island off the coast of Western Australia, 18 kilometres (11 mi) west of Fremantle. A sandy, low-lying island formed on a base of aeolianite limestone, it is an A-class reserve, the highest level of protection afforded to public land. With Garden Island, Rottnest Island is a remnant of Pleistocene dune ridges.
