Meet the happiest animal in the world: the quokka

About 30 minutes by ferry from Perth, another world unfolded before us. Rottnest Island is a healing paradise with beautiful beaches, crystal clear waters, and the happiest animal in the world, the quokka. When you go around the island on a rental bicycle, you will see picturesque scenery no matter where you look. The secret beaches we found along the way and our chance encounters with quokkas made our travel memories even more special. A place where you can reset yourself in the leisurely flow of time. This island is heartily recommended for those who want to experience the beauty of nature and the miracle of encounters.
