Rottnest Island, Australia Overview

Rottnest Island sits 19 km off the coast of Perth and has been car-free since it became a holiday destination in the early 20th century, so getting around means bike, bus, or on foot.

It's best known for its quokkas, dubbed the world's happiest animals thanks to their permanent smile, but the pristine beaches and snorkelling draw just as many visitors. Most people do it as a day trip from Perth by ferry, though there's enough here to justify staying overnight.
