Western Australia - Rottnest Island

Rottnest Island is a quick 30 minute ferry ride away from Fremantle, Perth.

Once you arrive you're greated by quokkas (mix between a rat and kangaroo)and desserted beaches surrounded by the clear blue Indian ocean packed to the brim with hundreds of different species of sea life. The snorkelling here is amazing, they even have underwater snorkel trails on some of the protected bays around the island.

Cars aren't prohibited on the island so the only way to get around the 24km in diameter island is by bike which in itself is an experience taking in the beautiful landscape and scenery.

Every time I visit Rottnest I come away feeling like I've been on a tropical island holiday, by far one of the most beautiful places in the world!!
