Scenic Australia - Kangaroo Island

in australia •  7 years ago  (edited)

One thing there is certainly no shortage of in Australia is the beautiful scenery. Just off the coast of South Australia you will find this lovely little island known as 'Kangaroo Island', which is home many species of native wildlife from koalas, to a variety of birds, to sea lions and even penguins. Given the diverse wildlife here over a third of the island is protected in nature reserves, hence preserving the beautiful land and creatures that inhabit it.

Pictured above is a baby sea lion on the beach at Kangaroo Island.

Even when you're not in the nature reserves and out on the road there is no lack of scenery; pictured below is Eucalyptus Road. Being in Kangaroo Island is comparable to driving through a zoo of Australian wildlife.

Would love to get there one day. Got as far as Victor Harbour but did not have the time.
Cheers from Tassie.

It certainly makes for a very nice and tranquil getaway!
