Kangaroo Island, Australia

As its name suggests, you will indeed encounter kangaroos while visiting Kangaroo Island. But there’s so much more to see in addition to Australia’s national animal. Situated 70 miles off the coast of Adelaide, Kangaroo Island is home to diverse wildlife, including the koala, platypus and tammar wallaby. Explore some of the island’s rugged 330 miles of coastline and visit sea lion and long-nosed fur seal colonies. Go sandboarding on the otherworldly landscape of Little Sahara sand dunes. Sample honey made from Ligurian honey bees — the island boasts the only purebred and disease-free population of this bee species. Or go vineyard hopping and discover a new favorite vintage. Experience an unforgettable day on an island unlike any other.
