Two Rocks
Two Rocks is an outer suburb at the northern edge of Perth, the state capital of Western Australia, located northwest of the city's central business district. It is part of the City of Wanneroo local authority and represents the furthest northern extent of the Perth metropolitan region. While the suburb has a large area, as at the 2001 census, the suburb's entire population lived within a region near the coast on either side of the marina. Large sections of the suburb are fenced off due to unexploded ordnance left behind from past military activity in the  area. A major landmark in the suburb is a large limestone sculpture of King Neptune by American sculptor Mark Le Buse, a remnant of the defunct Atlantis Marine Park, which operated between 1981 and 1990. The sculpture, which had sat abandoned and fenced off since the park's closure, was heritage listed by the Western Australian Heritage Council in 2006, before being restored and the surrounding area reopened to the public in May 2015. The suburb also contains a marina. History. The suburb of Two Rocks takes its name from two prominent rocks offshore from Wreck Point. It was approved  as a suburb name in 1975. As well as being the former location of Atlantis Marine Park, the suburb was also a hub of Alan Bond's failed Yanchep Sun City development plan in the 1980s. A large bushfire in the area in 1991 destroyed many dwellings in the suburb. Transport. Two Rocks is served by the 490 Transperth bus route from Butler railway station, which travels along Marmion Avenue and Yanchep Beach Road. This service is operated by Swan Transit.
