King IslandKing Island, off Tasmania, is a
very unique location as it is rugged and unpredict-
able. The landscape is raw and this is the attraction
for me, as sometimes the beauty is so obvious,
yet other times you need to look deep to find it.
DON’T MISS
Sunrise at British Admiral Beach, lots of col-
orful kelp and rocky headlands. Also Disap-
pointment Bay, unlike its name, is spectacular
for photography.
BEST TIME TO VISIT
Winter! The coastline is very rugged so winter
weather really portrays the mood and feel of
this place. King Island lays on the 40th par-
allel south, known as the roaring 40’s, so be
prepared for anything.Rugged and remote, King island is like nowhere else.
However if you are after cute white sandy beaches,
upmarket shopping, and fine dining then you might want
to look elsewhere!
