  1. Ellen’s Point- Travel Photo Thursday

    Blog: Vagabond3 - 12 May 2011

    After spending most of the day driving around Kangaroo Island, we stumbled upon Ellen’s Point at the perfect moment. We were completely by ourselves- not a soul in sight- with a light breeze and the smell of the ocean. We felt like we had found paradise. The ocean was a turquoise I had only ever seen in photos and even though there were clouds in the sky, they seemed like...

  2. The Wonderful World of Seals

    Blog: Vagabond3 - 14 April 2011

    Laying out a map of Kangaroo Island is like starring at a map of Disneyland. There are all these little “worlds” to explore and you want to try to fit it all in before your legs give out and the park closes up. Seal Bay was on the top of my list- much like Space Mountain always is- and we planned our entire visit around what would be the best...

  3. Postcard from... Kangaroo Island

    Blog: nateniale { reflections on my travels and everything else I love } - 3 March 2011

    Have you ever watch those cartoons or animations where there were birds sitting on tree branches singing happily away? This shot taken in Kangaroo Island in South Australia reminded me of that! Now, can you imagine them singing harmony just like in Snow White (in this song)? with a smile and a song,

    Here’s a compilation of a few of our favorite spots on the Eastern side of Australia: Great Ocean Road, Sydney, Port Douglas, and of course Kangaroo Island.  Sorry that it’s a bit shaky -- apparently a monopod looks like a dangerous weapon to airport security. www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_UnfZYNwTQ Subscribe to the comments for this post?

  6. South Australia: Kangaroo Island

    Blog: Pommie Travels - 13 August 2010

    One of the most beautiful places I have been without a doubt in Australia is Kangaroo Island. Whilst I had fun in the Whitsundays and on Fraser Island, the less well-known Kangaroo Island had a much more rugged, picturesque, back-to-nature feel. Powder white sandy beaches, seals, kangaroos, rivers, sand dunes, koalas…Kangaroo Island is a naure [...]

    Blog: Vagabond3 - 17 June 2010

    Australia has always been this magical place in my mind. After my dad went on a surf trip when I was a kid and my mom’s total love for it, even though she’s never been, there has been something fantastical about this kangaroo and diggeradoo packed place. Planning this trip forced me to research some [...]

    Blog: Vagabond3 - 8 June 2010

    Waking up at 5:25am in Adelaide’s Shakespeare Hostel was actually easier than I thought it’d be.  We were going to Kangaroo Island, or K.I. as the locals call it, and I was so ready to feed kangaroos, walk with seals at Seal Bay and see the magnificent Admiral’s Arch.

  15. Kangaroo Island – Scenery That Will Blow You Away

    Blog: Brilliant Tips Travel Blog - 19 July 2009

    If Aussie wildlife and wilderness are your thing, then Kangaroo Island is definitely for you. Located southwest of Adelaide, the island is Australia’s third largest (after Tasmania and Melville Island).  It is a great spot not only to experience Australia’s remarkable wildlife in its natural environment, but also to hike through untouched bush land. Once a shelter for the rogues and rapscallions of the British Empire, the locals now consist of koalas, platypus, echidnas, wallabies, sea lions, fairy penguins and the island’s own species of kangaroo. One third of South ...
