This idyllic island lies just an hour by ferry or 15 minutes by air from Perth. First discovered by Dutch seafarers in the 17th century and mistakenly named `rat's nest' for the quokkas (small marsupials that still roam the island today), Rottnest has almost 40km of extraordinarily white beaches, crystal-clear waters that are perfect for fishing, diving and snorkelling, and a relaxed, car-free atmosphere.

Admission: Inexpensive (includes ferry)
