Five Reasons to Visit Kangaroo Island in South Australia



Last month QantasLink announced a new flight route to Kangaroo Island (KI) – direct flights to Kingscote Airport from Melbourne and Adelaide.

The new flight route reflects the increasing demand and popularity of KI and provides a massive boost for tourism in South Australia and will be available from December 2017.

With the exceptional tourism products, sweeping landscapes and unique accommodation options KI has on offer, it's not hard to see why it's one of the hottest destinations for travellers to visit.

 Here are five reasons to travel to Kangaroo Island:

1. Beautiful Accommodation
Accommodation on KI is luxurious and will not disappoint - especially the likes of Southern Ocean Lodge, Lifetime Private Retreats, Kangaroo Island Beach Lodge, Villas on the Bay and Sea Dragon Lodge to name a few.

2. Natural Beauty
From soaring cliffs, dense bushland, Little Sahara Sand Dunes, wetlands, miles of white beaches and azure water, to the new Wilderness Trail stretching across 61 kilometres of rugged, remote coastline - KI's natural beauty will astound.

3. Wildlife encounters
With over 24 protected areas, 19 National and Conservation Parks including Seal Bay and five Wilderness Protection Areas - KI is a sanctuary for wildlife. Experience up-close encounters with Kangaroo Island Ocean Safari, including the opportunity to swim with wild dolphins, or take a tour with Exceptional Kangaroo Island Tours to experience KI's abundant wildlife.

4. Fresh produce
KI is a foodie's delight – with fresh and delicious produce at every corner. Include a visit to Island Pure Dairy to taste their range of sheep yoghurt and premium cheeses, stop in for lunch at Andermel Marron farm, sample Ligurian honey at Clifford's honey farm or end the day with a gourmet meal overlooking the Southern Ocean at Sunset Food and Wine.

5. Unique Tours 
Tour operators like Exceptional Kangaroo Island Tours, Odyssey Tours and KI Wilderness Tours are ready to showcase the very best KI has to offer while Hannaford and Satch's bespoke and intimate dining options will leave a lasting impression.
