Kangaroo Island is one of Australia’s most popular tourist attractions, especially with nature lovers. It’s one of the top day trip destinations from Adelaide, and these five attractions make it worth it.
Flinders Chase National Park
Flinders Chase National Park is a popular hiking and camping spot, but the rock formations you’ll find here make it worth the visit on their own. Granite boulders known by the name Remarkable Rocks are the first spot that comes to mind, but you should also check out breathtaking Admiral’s Arch.
Seal Bay Conservation Park
Most people visiting Kangaroo Island are here to join one of the guided tours and observe one of the largest sea lion colonies in Australia.
Kelly Hill Caves
Limestone caves are scattered all over Australia, and you can even find one of them on Kangaroo Island.
Little Sahara
This sand dune system can be found on the south coast of the island, and it’s one of the best reminders of its incredible natural diversity.
Little Penguin Colonies
Another reason why people visit Kangaroo Island are the wildly popular little penguin colonies, which you can discover by joining guided tours at Penneshaw and Kingscote.
