Kangaroo Island Activities
|
|
|
There are many bush walking trails to explore, so take your camera
and enjoy some of the most beautiful and natural bush land. Walking
trails can be found through out the island and can range from a ten
minute walk to a whole day walk, I like the ten minute one’s myself.

Little Sahara - Sand Boarding
|
|
|
A hidden treasure, from an island that has so much already, climb to
the top of the white sand dunes and take in the view of the
surrounding bushland and coast. Take a sand board with you and enjoy
riding down the razorback ridges. There are boards available for
hire at the Vivonne Bay Store, so if the kids still have energy
left, take them there, this will tire the little devils out. |
|
|
The island has several beaches that are known for good surf; they
include Pennington Bay, Vivonne Bay and Stokes Bay. For the more
experienced surfers there is D’Estrees Bay and Hanson Bay and always
take caution of strong rips and undertows on any beach. |
|
|
If you like to fish from jetties then the Kingscote jetty is your
best bet but Penneshaw, Vivonne Bay and American River also have
good jetties to fish from. If you are in to your beach fishing then
any beach will do. Some local knowledge will help so when you go to
buy some bait don’t be frighten to ask, most local's will let you
know what has been caught lately and where. |

|
There are lots of beaches on the Island, Emu Bay is the beach the
locals use during summer, only because they are too slack to get out
of their cars and walk. Yes you can drive your car on this beach but
there are good beaches every where on the island. Some are very
secluded and if you are lucky you might be the only ones there, so
pack your lunch or dinner and have a picnic on the beach. With any
beach take caution of strong rips and undertows. |

Where do I start, that’s what you will be thinking when you get
here, there is so much to photograph. There is plenty of scenery,
plenty of wildlife, plenty of birds, have a look at the photos
around this website and that’s just a start. |
|
|
If you like your bird life well there is no shortage here, they are
every where, in fact there are so many cockatoo's that they are
slowly killing the trees, they seem to nest in one until there is
nothing left. There are a few lagoons around the island that make
great places for bird watching. |
