Kangaroo Island, South Australia
Posted in Information by: Kurt WildeKangaroo island is one of the most beautiful and unspoiled natural wonders of the world. Separated from mainland Australia 9,000 years ago, this is the home of animals native to the continent – koalas munching on gum trees, seals sunbathing on empty beaches, and of course, kangaroos, wallabies, penguins, goannas and other marsupials at every turn. One third of Kangaroo Island is protected by the government as a national park, and rest of it is a virgin forest. You can walk freely among huge granite boulders or among the looming sand dunes of Little Sahara. Hike through the bushlands and see the island’s natural wildlife. Enjoy the ocean along the 400 kilometer coastline. And once you’re done exploring, you can rest in your own, quaint, lighthouse keeper’s cottage. You can reach Kangaroo Island through ferry services, but you will need to reserve your tickets ahead of time.
