Fish Hook Bay is a bay on Rottnest Island, in the Australian state of Western Australia. The bay is the westernmost bay on the island, and isolated from habitation, which occurs on the eastern side.
Fish Hook Bay takes its name from its shape, which resembles a fish hook.[1][2]
It was a location of mutton bird nests.[3] It has also been the location of unusual fish catches,[4][5] and research into marine species.[6]
