 1 Day Kangaroo Island Highlights Day Tour

Sea LionExperience the unspoilt nature and spectacular wild beauty of Kangaroo Island on this full day tour.

Depart early morning for a scenic coach trip through the hills and farmland, and along the coast to Cape Jervis, connecting with SeaLink’s fast and comfortable ferry “Sealion 2000” for the short 45 minute cruise to Kangaroo Island.

Your day of discovery begins with a visit to Seal Bay, where you can walk with a Parks Ranger amongst a wild colony of rare and endangered sea-lions resting on the beach after their long fishing expeditions.

Remarkable RocksDiscover the Island’s renowned park, Flinders Chase National Park, a sanctuary for numerous native Australian animals including kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, echidnas and Cape Barren Geese.

On the most southern tip of Flinders Chase National Park is Remarkable Rocks and Admiral’s Arch, both providing great photographic opportunities. Remarkable Rocks is truly remarkable in size and shape offering spectacular sea views. At Admiral’s Arch with its rugged coastal scenery look for fur seals frolicking in the waters below.

We then commence our journey back to Penneshaw, for the return ferry and coach transfer to Adelaide. (Passengers returning to Adelaide by air, will be transferred to Kingscote Airport for the flight to Adelaide)

 2 Day Kangaroo Island Tour

 

Seal BayDay 1 - Adelaide to Kangaroo Island.

After meeting your ATA guide and fellow travellers we drive south of Adelaide through the scenic hills of the Fleurieu Peninsula to Cape Jervis. Here we board the Sealink ferry to cross Backstairs Passage to Kangaroo Island - a 45 minute journey to Penneshaw.

Once on shore, we stretch our legs while searching for Tammar Wallabies and the Glossy Black Cockatoo before heading to one of the Island’s most stunning surf beaches at Pennington Bay. Our next stop and the highlight for most is the opportunity to walk amongst Australian Sea Lions, in their natural habitat on a guided interpretive walk at Seal Bay.

We then play and explore on the magnificent white sand dunes at Little Sahara, visit Vivonne Bay and search for koalas at the Hanson Bay Koala Sanctuary. We arrive at our farm-stay late afternoon and after dinner search for kangaroos, wallabies and possums on a guided nocturnal walk. (LD)

Day 2 - Kangaroo Island to Adelaide.Wallabies
Our morning is spent in the Flinders Chase National Park starting with an interpretive walk (4km return) at Snake Lagoon. We wind our way through the Rocky River Valley to the Southern Ocean, learning about the native flora and fauna of this unique eco-system.

We then make our way to Remarkable Rocks for a leisurely stroll amongst the huge weather-sculptured granite outcrops, visit Admirals Arch at Cape du Couedic to watch the resident colony of New Zealand fur seals frolic in the ocean or bask in the sun and then break for lunch at Rocky River Headquarters, with time to check out the Information Centre.

Following lunch, we travel through the central farming region to Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery - the only commercial distillery in operation in SA followed by a tasting of locally produced wines! We return to Penneshaw for our journey back to Adelaide. (BL)
