Kangaroo Island is an amazing destination for a holiday. With so many things to see and do, you will want to book your Kangaroo Island accommodation for a few nights so that you can pack in all the activities.
The things to see in Kangaroo Island include:
1. Flinders Chase National Park
One of the most beautiful national parks in Australia, the Flinders Chase National Park includes the Remarkable Rocks and Admirals Arch – just two of the gorgeous natural land formations that will take your breath away. You can start your visit with a stop at the Flinders Chase Visitor Centre. The Park also includes the Cape du Couedic lighthouse and plenty of wildlife including kangaroos, koalas, Cape Barren geese (which are now endangered) and echidnas.
2. Seal Bay Conservation Park
This is the third largest colony of sea lions in Australia, and is definitely the most accessible. You can opt for a guided tour right along the beach where the seal colonies are and observe the cute animals from up close. You can also take a self-guided tour along the boardwalk.
3. Kangaroo Island Penguin Centre
Hundreds of little penguins opt for Kangaroo Island accommodation and you can observe the rituals of these cute little creatures each night, as they return from a hard day of fishing out at sea. These adorable animals return to their burrows each night and you can watch them from very near. You can also enjoy viewing the saltwater aquariums of this centre, which contain an amazing variety of marine life, including cuttlefish, reef fish and seahorses.
4. Vivonne Bay
Sydney Unviersity recently evaluated all the beaches in Australia in terms of factors such as water clarity, cleanliness and privacy – and Vivonne Bay came out on top. With curved sandy beaches and crystal clear waters, all of Kangaroo Island’s beaches are lovely and worth a visit. In fact, you can even try to ensure that your Kangaroo Island accommodation has beach views, to enjoy the views every day from your own room.
