Thomson Bay Settlement

Main Rottnest town with supermarket, cafes, bike hire, gift shops and information centre located here. Quokkas can be seen throughout this built up area, under tables and chairs especially in the main areas around the supermarket.

Who doesn't love Quokkas! The whole of Rottnest Island is amazing... no wonder so many people love coming here... we travelled from Queensland to see this place and certainly wasn't disappointed... just love Rottnest and Quokkas! Thank you highly recommended + we did a guided tour, fantastic!

Everywhere is great to stay on the island, but Thomson is great for the elderly and families with young kids as everything is on the doorstep. Shops cafes bars beach. Never tire of coming to Rotto

It is such a nice place. We were in the island, visited many places. We saw quokkas there, they were sooo cute. Also many places to try different foods here, along with nice drinks and ice creams.

So lovely..I did expect to see a few more quokka.. But they were cute...

Rottnest Island was very interesting and beautiful especially with their residents of quokkas. Lovely scenery with beautiful coastline, delightful beaches to swim and snorkel, many walking paths, cycling, etc. There were lots of birds to see as well, including a couple of osprey nests.

What a beautiful island and the adorable Quokkas

Quokka's everywhere. Just remember not to feed them. Easy to get photos as they just aren't scared. We did a bus tour and thoroughly enjoyed seeing all around the island. Didnt know until we got there but you can also stay on the island with many different types of accommodation

Nice spot with plenty of facilities close by. If you plan to visit the island and want to hire bicycles, I recommend to hire them on the island and not through a ferry company. Main reason is they have a repair service on the island if your bike breaks. Quokkas are everywhere around here trying to steal food. Don’t feed them as they get manky from eating human food.

We went out on a charter boat over to rottenest Island for the day on the 18th of January

Variety of shops and lots of quokkas!
Bakery food is divine

So nice very good camp kitchen and so close to Pinky's beach and the basin

Clean place, historic and we'll maintained. Go on with a guide or downloaded info to better understand

Loved the place. Amust see on everyone's bucket list.

Nice winnter get awway from East coast . Chill and relax place.

Quokkas roaming around so cute

Very nice with a nice place to have a drink and meal nearby

Beautiful leisure. Without Quokkas, the settlement town would not be attractive.

You can find quokkas around the settlement, they love people and hate water. They won't be around the beaches

Thompsons has a beautiful outlook across the bay, its very relaxing. The food is just delicious. Service by the staff there is just wonderful. Highly recommend to any visiting Rottness Island.
