Fishing & Boating on Kangaroo Island
Fishing
Whether you want to dangle a line from a jetty, cast out from a sandy beach, or charter a deep-sea boat, Kangaroo Island offers excellent fishing spots for you to enjoy.
Our Kangaroo Island Fishing guide provides details on fish species, hot spots and bag limits.
Tackle, bait and ice are available from Kingscote, American River, Penneshaw, Parndana and Vivonne Bay, and fishing tours are conducted from American River, Penneshaw, Kingscote and Emu Bay.
Sailing and Cruising
Clear water, sandy beaches, isolated coves and impressive scenery can all be enjoyed while sailing the waters of Kangaroo Island.
Nepean Bay has all year-round sheltered cruising for day sailing, and the north coast provides numerous spectacular anchorages on longer voyages. Overnight mooring is available in Penneshaw at Christmas Cove. Overnight permits are available from Kangaroo Island Council and the Gateway Visitor Information Centre.
Our Kangaroo Island boating guide provides information on boating on our North Coast.
