- Traveling with DOGS on KI South Australia
It doesn’t cost any extra to have your four legged friend come across to KI with you on the ferry, just make sure they know your traveling with a dog when booking your ticket (they list them, on your ticket). The ferry crossing itself is only 45 minutes, so not a long journey. You have 2️⃣ options with your dog on the ferry;
Option 1) they stay secured in your car / van on the deck of the ferry. Its all open aired and you can actually keep an eye on them from the top level.
Option 2) they have a covered area on the top deck, with tables and seating you can sit with your dog. Dog must be on a lead and under control of course.
When booking your trip over to KI, the team at SeaLink mentioned that you ring📞 the local KI council and register your dog for the period you’ll be on the island. A completely free service, and is more for the council records. So that if your dog got lost while on the island, they can reunite with their owners. To our surprise, alot of KI is indeed dog friendly, with only two national park areas, that they are not allowed into. There is also a vet & dog sitter on the island, if you require those services for your pooch too!👍🏼
🔹🚢 FERRY tickets & boarding
If you want to travel to KI with a caravan, be sure to book ahead. We travelled in ‘off peak’ and were able to secure some dates only 2 weeks out. We have heard it gets VERY busy in peak times, so make sure you lock in🔒 some dates if you intend to travel. The ferry terminal is located at Cape Jervis on the mainland & located at Penneshaw on KI. Both easily signed and user friendly. You simply park up in one of the lanes and then head into the office to ‘check-in’ - which is advised to be, at least 45mins before your departure time.
When boarding the ferry, all trailed vehicles are reversed on. As its only a medium sized ferry and is designed with only rear loading ramps. The crew on the ferry are really good and gave us an option of reversing it on ourselves, or you can ask one of the ferry staff to jump in and reverse it for you. Depending how confident you are and how full the ferry is, it can be a tight fit, so your reversing skills have to be good. 😉
🔹⏰ How much TIME to allow on KI
We briefly touched on this in our original blog. We spent 13 days and that was ok, but we could of easily spent a month relaxing around the island. Due to the high ferry cost, you want to make the most of your time on the island and give yourself plenty of time to immerse yourself into island life & see all the sights.
So grab a map, start looking at what you want to see and try to workout a rough timeframe that would suit you. PLUS we would highly recommend having a few extra days up your sleeve, just incase you get bad weather.
🔹⛽️ FOOD & FUEL
Don’t be fooled, Kangaroo island is huge! So make sure you plan ahead and check out where the fuel stations are. The major town on KI is Kingscote, on the north-eastern side. There is a IGA here and also an IGA in Penneshaw (ferry terminal). There is a few small convenience stores spread out, but those two IGAs obviously have the best range of stock.

Fantastic legends as always 🤙🤙🍻🍻
Cheers!!
Really enjoyed hope to get there one day.
Always liked your videos so thanks for taking the time to put them together. It would be interesting to see a video where you talk about adjusting to normal life after travelling for all that time. I'm guessing the travel changed your perspective on life a little?
Yeah having a daughter and a mortgage has had an impact on our travelling. But we wouldn't have it any other way. Good idea.
Im a new subscriber. Cool
Hey guys, hope you are all well! are we going to see any new Vids in the not to distant future? we love watching your Channel,
Cheers Pete & Jane
Epic find
Nice video 🤙
Thanks ✌
With the pickling of the razor fish try using pickling liquid from pickled onions or gherkins, etc.
Ohh nice, good tip!
Hey guys. Great ep 👍 just wanted to forewarn you that a pandemic called Covid-19 is going to hit Australia in 2020 😮
We should've stayed here haha
Has your caravan got all terrains?
You have inspired me to visit one day,those shots over water were beautiful, razor fish/inflatable paddleboard got me nervous are they sharp ?your voice overs sound amazing what microphone are you using,
Thanks, we use RODE NT USB. It was a little concerning but the paddleboard is pretty tough.
Hey just wanted to ask how to book the area for tents or camping?
Just caught up with this video.
If i may ask hows family life with the little one now?
Any intentions to hit the road again in the future?
Hey Mick, family life is going great 👍. We're running 2 businesses at the moment so it's keeping us busy.
Not sure on the travel scene yet.
Hi guys, when was this filmed?
Razor Fish - it is illegal around most littoral areas in Australia to harvest this mollusc. They are bay and estuary bound, filtering the water and improving the health of the water. Taking a Razor Fish is like taking seagrass from a dugong.
Compare the size of the shell and it's contents to pipis, oysters and scallops. They take ages to grow for such a small take. They are better left alone as they are so easy to harvest compared to the aforementioned molluscs.
Hello, please provide me a website link that confirms anything you're saying.
We literally filmed the sign from the government on purpose to show everyone its legal.
