Experience the stunning world-class McLaren Vale wine region and the Fleurieu Peninsula by travelling at least one way by road to Kangaroo Island. It’s just too beautiful to fly over completely.

We are offering a range of options for travel between Adelaide and Kangaroo Island on a FERRY/FERRY or FERRY<>FLY basis. These add-ons can be requested with any duration of Experience package or room category booking for travel from July 1, 2024.

A reminder that all scheduled on-island transfers to/from Sea Dragon are provided as part of the Experience packages so on-island car hire is not necessary when booking Experiences.
