🌧️ Don't let a little winter rain put you off visiting Kangaroo Island!

Winter is one of the island's most beautiful seasons. The rain transforms the landscape into a lush green paradise, waterfalls begin to flow, wildlife is active, and the island feels peaceful and uncrowded.

Most winter days still offer plenty of opportunities to explore our stunning coastline, discover local food and wine, spot kangaroos, koalas and sea lions, and enjoy breathtaking scenery. Plus, those dramatic winter skies make for some incredible photos!

The winter rain is essential for keeping Kangaroo Island healthy and thriving, and it's all part of the authentic island experience. So pack a jacket, embrace the fresh air, and come see the island at its greenest and most vibrant. We can't wait to welcome you! 🦘🌿☕🌊

Beautiful two-minute clip of footage taken from the ground and air of water flowing through Cygnet River and Duck Lagoon, restoring life to the system and challenging drivers at the Gums on Playford Highway. The Bureau of Meteorology said more than 80mm of rain was recorded at nearby Kingscote Airpo...

Wild moment today: a magpie took on an eagle mid air and won.

The magpie kept swooping relentlessly, forcing the much larger bird to back off and leave the area. Just goes to show, in nature, courage can beat size.
