Once you land, hire a bike (the island's preferred mode of transport) and explore the island at your own pace. How about capturing a selfie with a quokka? You'll find these adorable marsupials all over the island. Don't forget to hit one of the 63 stunning beaches and 20 secluded bays - ideal for a quick dip or snorkel.
