Kangaroo Island is the third largest island in Australia. To avoid disappointment we strongly recommend at least a two day minimum stay. If you enjoy bushwalking, wildlife, bird-watching or photography, then three to five nights is ideal. We are located at the centre of spectacular coastal scenery, wonderful wilderness walking and wildlife.
Both QANTAS and Regional Express Airlines fly from Adelaide Airport. REX has a luggage limit of 15kg. You will be charged $3 per kilo if you are over that limit but offer a locker system for excess luggage if you chose to redistribute it for your island visit. This is an affordable and convenient way to experience other attractions on the island.
