Like clockwork, the Easter Bunny travels across Australia bringing chocolate eggs to the young and young at heart. While in some parts of Australia the Easter Bilby is celebrated, on Rottnest Island things are done a little differently and the local quokkas join in on the fun.
Rottnest Express, operated by Journey Beyond, is excited to announce the return of the Rottnest Express Easter Egg hunt. The Easter Egg Hunt runs from 7-23 April 2023, challenging kids of the Quokka Club to seek out seven egg stickers hidden on Rottnest Island to win an exclusive Easter Rottnest Express prize pack.
Six local Rottnest Island businesses are involved in the Easter Egg Hunt, with several new businesses joining the initiative for 2023. “There was such a positive response from both local and interstate travellers last year. Almost 500 kids participated and collected their prize, and we’re thrilled to bring the Rottnest Express Easter Egg Hunt back to the Island over these school holidays,” says Niko Peranovic, General Manager of Rottnest Express. “We love working with local businesses during this event and giving people another reason to explore beautiful Rottnest Island.”
Using their Rottnest Express Egg Tracker List, participants record the locations of the eggs and submit their list on their ferry journey back to Perth to be rewarded with their prize pack. All participants need to do to join the hunt is book a ferry ticket to Rottnest Island between 7-23 April with an eligible Quokka Club membership. The Egg Tracker List and instructions can be collected prior to travel from any Rottnest Express reservation desk upon proof of a Quokka Club membership.
Easter is the perfect time to join the Quokka Club. The Quokka Club offers free travel to Rottnest Island for West Australian children 12 years and under. Members receive a complimentary drink and snack on their first journey, a Quokka Club Passport, stamp rewards with every journey and other on-island member discounts.
