Come to King Island Australia on holiday and you will marvel the lush vegetation, off shore reefs, ship wrecks amongst the rocky coasts and the long stretches of beaches on the fringe of this scenic island. It is a reminder that King Island’s west coast is rugged and one of the most challenging oceans in the world when you see the ship wrecks in the coastline. Australia’s worst maritime disaster occurred here in 1845, when the Cataraqui grounded. Today, Cape Wickham lighthouse – the tallest lighthouse in the southern hemisphere guides mariners safely into Bass Strait.
When on holiday you must visit Reid Rocks which is the home and breeding ground to a colony of Australian fur seals. Visit one of the King Island Dairies when you are on your vacation here. Enjoy the cheeses and the fresh local food. You will see plenty of wallabies, peacocks and even albatrosses and sea eagles circling the sky. During your drives you are bound to see grazing Turkeys and pheasants along the country roads.
The east coast is much more sheltered, with long beaches, such as the Nine Mile Beach and a couple of State Parks. The little settlement on this coast is Naracoopa, which lies on a sweeping bay and has guest houses, restaurants and a jetty etc. If looking for accommodation King Island, check out Naracoopa holiday cottages located in the East Coast of King Island.
