Explore the home of the Quokkas on a Rottnest Island tour

Surrounded by the Indian Ocean on one side and the Perth coastline on the other, this tiny island is home to sunny beaches, rocky viewpoints, and is an A-Class nature reserve. Fun fact: the island gets its name from 17th century Dutch explorers who saw the native quokkas and named the island "Rat's Nest", thinking them to be a large species of rats! And while these adorable "rats" are reason enough to visit Rottnest Island, you will love the dazzling beaches, wildlife, and history too.
