Our usual first stop and great to meet friendly helpful staff with detailed local knowledge. Sourced some very useful brochures for Rockingham and other areas on our visitation agenda. Good selection of mementos and souvenirs available.

oh dear; little or no help from the lass behind the counter; even using their PC-at a cost (which was fine) was problematic; system slow and really a poor experience; probably ok if you aren't in a hurry as there's plenty of literature, but if you ain't buying something then beware you may find the experience draining.

While we were safe in the Penguin Centre in Rockingham, several trees had been fallen to the ground.
One of these trees were nearby the Rockingham Visitor Centre.
The clerk was very friendly. He gave us a map of Rockingham and attractions that we would like.
Inside it was very modern and lots of pamphlets were available for free.
We left with a smile. Now we knew where to go!

We will be staying in Perth soon and would love to see The Catalba memorial but we won't have a car. Would we be able to take the train to Rockingham and then get a taxi to see it?
Thank you.

you can walk around all day enjoy the beach area and some good eateries
not sure about the frequency of taxi service
