Itinerary: day by day
Day 1 – Adelaide to Kangaroo Island
Travel through the Fleurieu Peninsula, arriving at Cape Jervis to board the SeaLink ferry across Backstairs Passage (45 minute trip) to Penneshaw. Whilst crossing, it is not uncommon to have an escort of local dolphins that can be viewed from the dolphin deck on the vessel.
First stop is Rob's Shearing, where you will witness and learn how to shear a sheep. Travel to Pennington Bay, one of the Island's stunning beaches or Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery before having lunch and visiting Seal Bay. At Seal Bay experience a guided walk along the beach amongst the Sea Lions! Then travel to the white sand dunes of the Little Sahara and have some fun on the sand boards and toboggans before we arriving at your exclusive accommodation at Vivonne Bay Eco-Adventures. Here you have the opportunity to spend some free time kayaking on the Harriet River or boogie boarding and surfing (included). Alternatively, you can have a swim or snorkel, take a self-guided walk along the property's tracks, go trail bike riding or simply kick back on the "best beach in Australia" as it was recently voted. There are plenty of complimentary activities to keep you occupied before and after your BBQ dinner. As darkness sets in you can take part in a nocturnal wildlife guided walk. (LD)
Day 2 – Kangaroo Island to Adelaide
On the way to Flinders Chase National Park, get up close to more wildlife at Hanson Bay Koala sanctuary. You will arrive at Remarkable Rocks ahead of the crowds to clamber over and marvel at the spectacular coast and seascapes. We head around to Admirals Arch at Cape Du Couedic where we watch the resident fur seals frolic in the ocean or sun bake on the rocks. After lunch at the Rocky River Visitors Centre, we have an option of several walks (seasonal choice/guide discretion) before hitting the spectacular North Coast and its many idyllic beaches (seasonal). If time and weather permits, several stops may be made en route to Penneshaw where you can purchase dinner before your departure back to Adelaide. (BL)
