Rediscover Rockingham

Seal swimming underwater looking into camera

Where the coast comes to life

Home to 37 km of stunning coastline, glowing with ample sunshine and blessed with brilliant sunsets, there is so much to enjoy in Rockingham/Moordibirdup.

Spend a day exploring one of our many offshore islands in the Shoalwater Islands Marine Park, cast a line or catch some sun along the vast stretches of white sandy beaches, stand-up paddleboard or kayak within our well-protected glassy bays, swim with wild dolphins, snorkel with sea lions, or dive our otherworldy wrecks and underwater trails. 

Experience the region's relaxed beach lifestyle, arts, food and culture along the Rockingham Foreshore, with endless cafes and restaurants to choose from beside the ocean. 

Accessible for all, whether you are seeking a spontaneous day trip, coming from afar, or planning a special weekend away - once you rediscover Rockingham you will find there is always more to explore.
