Location Maps
The main roads of Kangaroo Island are sealed and generally in good condition, though care should be exercised when travelling around dawn or dusk due to kangaroos. While kangaroos are marvellous to view, they can cause considerable damage to vehicles.
If you are travelling to Kangaroo Island via the 'Sealink' Ferry which docks at Penneshaw, simply follow the well sign-posted road towards Kingscote, turn right at the Kingscote intersection and then immediate left, past the airport and then straight ahead to Parndana. There are road maps available from the Tourist Information Centre which is located on the left hand side of the road, as you leave Penneshaw.

Avoid travelling around dawn and dusk, and if you have to travel, do so at reduced speed to avoid damage if you do encounter some of our native Australian wildlife.
A sealed road is provided to most of the major tourist attractions like Flinders Chase, Remarkable Rocks, Seal Bay, Kelly Hill Caves, Vivonne Bay, and all townships.
Unsealed roads on the island can be extremely slippery due to the nature of the material used in their construction, so care should be exercised at all times, you may have not as much grip on the road as you think.

The people on Kangaroo Island are extremely friendly and are only too willing to lend a hand to visitors, so don't be shy about asking directions. It is not un-common for local people to stop and check that you are alright when stopped on the side of the road. |
