Conservation Park, home to Kelly Hill limestone
caves, which are perfect to explore any time of
the year. In fact, the caves are known for their
own little microclimate with a temperature of
16°C and humidity levels of 70-80 per cent no
matter what the weather is outside. For people
with the thrill for real adventure there are
caving tours, which will have you crawling your
way through an underground maze of smaller
caverns.
THE ICONIC LOOK
If you ever Google Kangaroo Island, you can’t
go past the images of the Remarkable Rocks, a
unique formation on the south-western corner
of the island. The massive granite boulders
are believed to have originated from
a volcanic activity over 500 million
years ago and the unusual shapes of
the rocks have been naturally sculpted
by unobstructed ocean winds and
rain. The rocks sit atop a massive
granite outcrop, about 75m above
sea level, which makes for a perfect
viewing platform to sit down and take
a moment to stare into the depth of
the Southern Ocean. Looking into the
distance, thinking that the next bit of
land on the horizon is Antarctica really
does make you feel like you’re on the
edge of the world!
