Established 1962 as a not-for-profit, we have been working tirelessly to promote Rockingham’s stunning tourist attractions, events, and hospitality, proudly having done so for over five decades. Our team helps guide the direction of the Rockingham Visitor Centre, and we do so with a shared vision of making Rockingham a top destination for locals and visitors alike.
The Rockingham Visitor Centre has become the go-to spot for anyone looking for advice on the best attractions in the area. Whether you are a local or tourist, our knowledgeable and friendly staff are always ready to share their insights and keep you up to date on everything happening in Rockingham. Our close partnerships with local businesses and the Rockingham Kwinana Chamber of Commerce ensure that we are connected to the community we serve.
Over the past ten years, we have been proud to collaborate with incredible partners like the Tourism Council of Western Australia, Destination Perth, and the City of Rockingham to rebrand our city as Perth’s preferred coastal getaway. We also played an integral role in the development of the Tourism Destination Strategy 2019-2024 and continue to collaborate on marketing initiatives to attract more visitors to Rockingham.
One of our most memorable accomplishments was initiating and hosting the Rockingham Musselfest, which ran for thirteen amazing years and became a highlight of the region. It was an honour to help establish the Sister City relationship with Ako, Japan, and the Friendship City Agreement with Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, opening doors for international tourism and fostering global connections.
At the heart of everything we do is our love for Rockingham. We are here to ensure you experience the best of this wonderful coastal city.
