Go beyond the ordinary as you take a glimpse into the island’s seafaring past and take in panoramic views of the Southern Ocean, making it a fascinating and scenic destination for exploration. You’ll leave amazed by the human ingenuity, natural wonders, and satisfied by the food and wine of the region.
Today you’ll travel through beautiful farmland to Cape Willoughby Lighthouse, a historic maritime beacon that stands proudly on Kangaroo Island’s rugged coastline and most easterly point. You’ve arrived at South Australia’s oldest lighthouse, built in 1852. Today the area is stunning and thriving with wildlife.
Join a ranger for a guided tour of the light station precinct, museum and tower (102 steps) with amazing views of the backstairs passage. The isolation and ruggedness of this part of Kangaroo Island is striking as you learn about the maritime history of the Island and join a short coastal walk to see the Devils Kitchen. Here you can wonder at these dramatic rock formations sea caves and the tumultuous waves crashing against the cliffs.
From here you will travel a short distance to False Cape Winery, one of the leading wineries on the Island. False Cape vineyard is sustainable and completely off the grid with a unique cellar door. The vineyard covers 65 acres and has seven varietals made up of a great mix of reds and whites. Included in your tour is a wine tasting experience and a substantial lunch made up of deluxe platters and great homemade pies.
Afterward, relax as you’ll drive back to Penneshaw.
