Do you dream of going on an extraordinary vacation? Choose Kangaroo Island, you will not be disappointed! Embark to discover the 3rd largest island in the Australian subcontinent. Kangaroo Island, the most famous tourist attraction in the State of South Australia, will satisfy your every whim. You can get there just after a few hours by car and ferry south of Adelaide, not far from the tip of the sublime Fleurieu Peninsula. You can finally treat yourself to a real weekend getaway and more if you want! This place beaten by the waves and the wind offers an unexpected nature and discovery destination.

1) You will have the opportunity to run with the kangaroos

The island obviously got its name because of the abundance of kangaroos that inhabited it. These curious creatures will never be a mystery to you again after passing through here. What a pleasure to observe and hang out among these animals! You can also come across a large population of its almost extinct little cousin: the walabi of Tammar. Wild colonies of koalas and platypus are visible alongside animals such as echidna, opossum or monitor lizard. You will also see sea lions basking on the sandy shores of SealBay. At dusk, hundreds of penguins crash ashore, it's amazing!

2) Because you will find yourself at the heart of a superb landscaped ball

The environment that sets the scene for this wildlife festival is also worth a look on its own. You will never have admired such a life in the colors of nature, it is dazzling! You will be captivated by the spectacle of the ebony cliffs at the foot of which the foam of the Southern Ocean crashes. Under the vigilant and impassive silhouette of the old lighthouses at Cape Borda and Cape Willoughby, it is amazing! You can enjoy the pristine beaches with crystal clear turquoise waters of Stokes Bay and Vivonne Bay. Green meadows are ideal for picnics.

3) You will undoubtedly like this pantagruelic island

What’s on the menu? What is used in this place from all magical points of view? What does this land produce? There is a treat in the air! Kangaroo Island has quickly built a reputation as a little paradise for food lovers. Here you will taste the most famous variety of honey in the world. Indeed, this nectar is produced by Ligurian bees of Italian origin who to this day now live nowhere else. Lobster, lobster and fresh fish dishes will brighten up the palate. For dessert, don't forget to savor the local yogurts!

4) Because it offers a wide range of nautical activities

What better way to eliminate the calories so deliciously eaten by filling your stomach with local products! Do not hesitate to join one of the many sporting and other leisure opportunities that abound on the island. There are so many, you’ll be spoiled for choice! You can practice the surfboard to challenge the waves of Pennington Bay. Or opt for the sandboard history of surfing on the sand dunes of Little Sahara. Kayaking around the corner or quad biking around Vivonne Bay is the most fun.
