From windswept cliffs to turquoise waters, Kangaroo Island is packed with postcard-perfect spots that are just begging to be photographed. Here are our top picks to boost your grid — and yes, they’re even better in person.
1. Flinders Chase National Park
Flinders Chase National Park is the home to the most iconic sites and Australia’s most scenic drives!

Nearby, Admirals Arch, a natural rock bridge framing dramatic waves and fur seals basking below.

Followed by Remarkable Rocks — ancient granite boulders balanced on a clifftop with jaw-dropping ocean views! A photographers dream!

2. Vivonne Bay Jetty
A quiet, pristine beach with crystal-clear water and a rustic jetty. The contrast of the deep blues and white sands is pure magic.

3. Stokes Bay Tunnel Beach
Snap a “hidden entrance” photo as you walk through the tunnel of rocks to this stunning secret beach.

5. Emu Bay
Long, white sandy stretches perfect for drone shots or coastal selfies. You can even drive your car onto the beach!

6. Cape Willoughby Lighthouse
The lighthouse stands tall against a sweeping ocean backdrop — stunning from every angle, especially on a clear day.

7. Lavender Farm at Emu Bay
In season, the rows of vibrant purple blooms create a dreamy backdrop for portraits, picnics, or flat lays.
