Welcome to Kangaroo Island
Wayfaring
Getting here
Kangaroo Island is much larger than people think, so we recommend you plan for a minimum of 3 days on the island to properly appreciate its food, wine, and wilderness. The island is around 140 km long (3.5 – 4 hr drive end to end), so we advise that you stock up with food supplies and petrol in Kingscote or Penneshaw before you head out to us.
Sealink operates daily ferries to take passengers and vehicles from Cape Jervis on the mainland to Penneshaw on Kangaroo Island. The ferry trip is approximately 45 minutes followed by a 90-minute drive to the Sky House.
QantasLink is flying a short 35-minute one-way from Adelaide to Kingscote Airport on Kangaroo Island several times a week. It is then a 45-minute drive to The Sky House.
To hire a car on the island, check out Hertz and Budget or look at a Private Transfer. Please note that some hire companies disallow night driving (for insurance reasons), so plan accordingly.
