Hillarys is 22 km from RAC Arena — about 20 min door to door. Hillarys is built around its boat harbour on the northern beaches — Sorrento Quay’s boardwalk, AQWA, and a marina that doubles as the northern departure point for the Rottnest ferry. The residential streets behind it run to long white beaches, and the airport is a straight forty minutes down the Mitchell Freeway outside peak. Landmarks on and around this route include Sorrento Quay boardwalk, AQWA aquarium, Hillarys Beach.

Coming in from RAC Arena, the run to Perth Airport uses Tonkin Highway, Reid Highway and the Mitchell Freeway. The northern beaches are reached across the top of the city rather than through it, so the drive avoids the CBD entirely. Reid Highway is the pinch point in the afternoon peak; outside it the whole corridor is freeway-grade.
22 km is the road distance actually driven between RAC Arena and Hillarys, not a straight line on a map, and the 20 min estimate is measured over that road. Both numbers set the fixed fare, so a longer way round in traffic costs you nothing and gives the driver no reason to take one.
