Kangaroo island

Ultimate guide (December 2024)
Kangaroo island is an island near Adelaide in Australia. There are really a lot of kangaroos, as well as seals and other creatures. Unfortunately, the beaches are not so good as you could imagine. We also recommend you to think about glorious Lucky Bay beach, which also has a lot of kangaroos. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
This island ranks #12 of the "Best islands in Australia"

Hotels [edit]

Kangaroo Island has a great selection of hotels for every budget. However, if you want a good room, be ready to pay US$150-200 per night.

How to get there [edit]

Fly to Adelaide International Airport (ADL). Next take a ferry from Cape Jervis port (located to the south of Adelaide) to the port of Penneshaw in the east of Kangaroo Island.

There is no taxi servise in the island, but there are so-called transfer companies, which will deliver you to any place in the island. There is also bus service in the island, but it's not very comfortable.

When to go [edit]

The best time to travel to Kangaroo Island of Australia is a warm season from October to April.

If you plan to swim in the ocean, it is best to choose February when sea water is warmest. However, even at this time it is still not warmed enough.
