Rottnest Island

This sandy island is 19 km off the coast from Fremantle. It is only 11km long and 4,5 km wide. Rottnest Island has beautiful white beaches and is particularly interesting for snorkelling, diving and surfing activities. Several ferries are operating from Perth and Fremantle to the car-free island. The cost for go and back are around A$ 50. If you need a cheap and nice accommodation you should go to the "Kingstown Barracks YHA", there you have to pay A$ 20 per night and dorm.
