Penguin Island (Western Australia)

3rd Jan 11:
Penguin island it's a small island just 800 metres from Rockingham (south of Perth).
The water is so low that we decided to walk across instead of taking the ferry even if we weren't allowed to.
Only penguins and birds are living on the island.

The water was unbelievably clear and warm.
