Rottnest Island is a highlight for anyone visiting Perth, notably for its fun-loving quokkas, but I discovered something I enjoyed even more than grabbing a quokka selfie, writes Anna Sarjeant “Well, we can’t do worse than only catching one,” I say with a flash of a smile to my crayfish-hauling partner aboard Rottnest Cruises. I didn’t even think I was being that cocky. We’re pulling up a lobster pot, in the hope that we’ve caught the right-sized, right-gendered crayfish to eat as part of our seven-course luxury seafood cruise, while skirting the cobalt-coloured shoreline of Rottnest Island, 30km from Perth, Western Australia.
