Escape the city and head to Rottnest Island, one of Perth's most popular holiday resorts. Board your high-speed ferry from Hillarys Boat Harbour and enjoy the scenic views during the 40-minute cruise across the Indian Ocean. Spend the day exploring the car-free island independently, taking in the views from the Wadjemup Lighthouse, hiring a bike or relaxing on the sandy beaches. When it's time to leave, simply head back to the jetty to catch your return ferry.
