Flinders Chase and West End Wildlife Tour

Flinders Chase and West End Wildlife Tour
From AUD $390.00
  • Duration: 8 Hours (approx.)
  • Product code: F/CHASE - EN


This is a flexible itinerary that can be customised for your unique experience.

You have two options for departure locations.

Option 1: Departure from Kingscote / Airport - WE DO NOT DEPART FROM PENNESHAW/FERRY.

Tours departing from the airport or your Kingscote hotel will include a visit to the Flinders Chase NP where the famous Remarkable Rocks and Admirals Arch are located.

Due to the 2019 fires, the itinerary has slightly changed to allow the areas affected by the fires to regenerate. Fires are part of the "every day” life in Australia and the vegetation is used to them, actually they need the fire to be able to regenerate itself! 

On the way to the East End of the island we will be able to observe part of the North Coast and we will stop to visit Snelling Beach, one of the best beaches on the island and Western River where we will have morning tea with coffee observing the rugged coastline of KI. In this area, we will often spot some sleepy koalas and kangaroos grazing.

In the afternoon we will take a walk around the famous rock formations of Remarkable Rocks, only 5 million years old! Not far from there we will be able to observe the Long Nosed Furseals ( also know as New Zealand Furseals) playing in the rock pools under Admirals Arch.

At the end of the tour, after seeing Sea Lions, Kangaroos, Koalas, Wallabies and, if you are lucky enough, even an Echidna up close, we will take you back to your hotel, or to the airport/ferry port.

The tour includes coffee breaks with biscuits and a light meal (please let us know about your dietary allergies) or you can book a BBQ lunch that will be cooked right there by the guide.
