KANGAROO<br />
ISLAND<br />
Red Banks, Kangaroo Isl<strong>and</strong>, Ben Goode<br />
Kangaroo Isl<strong>and</strong> is one of the world’s great<br />
wilderness destinations.<br />
Australia’s third largest isl<strong>and</strong> stretches 155 kilometres long <strong>and</strong> 55<br />
kilometres wide. The coastline is big enough to bestow a real sense of<br />
peace, wild enough to harbour a few secrets <strong>and</strong> small enough to tour.<br />
You can quietly ‘go bush’ <strong>and</strong> see native Australian animals <strong>and</strong> birds<br />
as they were meant to be - in the wild.<br />
Kangaroo Isl<strong>and</strong> offers a wealth of inspiring nature-based experiences.<br />
Flinders Chase National Park is the place to watch the New Zeal<strong>and</strong><br />
Fur Seals at Admirals Arch, marvel at the sculptures of Remarkable<br />
Rocks, observe rare Australian Sea Lions at Seal Bay, <strong>and</strong> make a date<br />
to meet the Little Penguins as they emerge from the sea at the end of<br />
their working day. ‘KI’ as the locals call it, is big <strong>and</strong> surprisingly<br />
diverse, so you will always find somewhere to call your own to enjoy a<br />
little quiet time <strong>and</strong> let nature soothe your spirit. If you are an<br />
experience seeker, there is the opportunity to scuba dive, snorkel, fish,<br />
surf, kayak or quad bike.<br />
Kangaroo Isl<strong>and</strong> has a thriving food <strong>and</strong> wine industry so get ready to<br />
enjoy freshwater crayfish (Marron), lobsters, the famous King George<br />
Whiting, local oysters <strong>and</strong> the world’s finest Ligurian Bee honey. The<br />
wine industry is only young but we’re ripening to perfection so call in<br />
to one of the many cellar doors for a drop. To get to the isl<strong>and</strong>, you<br />
can choose to fly, drive or take a coach to Cape Jervis <strong>and</strong> connect<br />
with the regular passenger <strong>and</strong> car ferry.<br />
