 You  will be collected from your Adelaide hotel at 7am this morning for your 3  day 4WD tour to Kangaroo Island. We drive south to Cape Jervis where we   catch the ferry to Kangaroo Island, an unspoiled island wilderness with over   500km’s of coastline, an interesting maritime history and a variety of wildlife   including sea-lions, fur seals, koalas, platypus and of course, kangaroos. It’s   the 3rd largest island in Australia and a third of the island is protected as   National Park and Conservation Park. The ferry crosses the Backstairs   Passage, arriving in Penneshaw approximately 45 minutes later.  We continue out t o Cape Willoughby   on the far eastern side of the island andoffering fabulous   360-degree views of the rugged coastline and the ever-changing seas of   Backstairs Passage. Cape Willoughby Lighthouse was the first lighthouse built in   South Australia and here we take a ranger led tour, where we can walk to the top   of the lighthouse and hear stories about living and working in such a harsh   environment. We head west and after lunch, you'll take a ranger led tour at   Seal Bay Conservation Park, home to the 3rd largest colony of the rare   Australian Sea-lion with a population of around 1000. We are privileged to be   able to take a walking tour along the beach, where   we can watch them resting, playing and nursing their pups.   We now travel to our accommodation at American River. The hotel is located across from the foreshore and wildlife is often seen here including wallabies, kangaroos, echidna and sometimes koalas. The hotel also offers a free, self guided nocturnal walk which is another opportunity to spot wildlife. Overnight accommodation - Mercure Kangaroo Island Lodge, in a Bayview Superior room Day 2 (B   L) We'll explore Flinders Chase National Park this morning, which   takes up a large portion   of the western side of the island and is home to the elusive platypus, koalas   and a host of other wildlife. En-route we have a leg stretch at the beautiful Vivonne Bay. The park features 74,000 hectares   (200,000 acres) of natural bush land and spectacular rock formations, such as   Admiral's Arch and Remarkable Rocks, which are wind-sculpted rock formations   that sit atop a smooth granite dome. New Zeala nd fur-seals breed at Cape du   Couedic andwe can watch their antics from the boardwalk at Admirals Arch. We continue to  the Hanson Bay   Sanctuary, where you'll take a guided tour along an avenue of shady Eucalyptus trees called   “Koala Walk”. This the best place on the island to see Koalas in their natural   habitat. After lunch we head to the   north of the island and out to Stokes Bay, where a walk through the cliffs   reveals a beautiful white sandy beach with a lovely rockpool.  Depending on time and your preference,   we can take the north coast road to Emu Bay or visit Island Pure Sheep Diary. on   the way to Kingscote.
