How to spend 48 hours in Victor Harbor

Victor Harbor, located just 80 km from Adelaide, is surrounded by pristine beaches, rocky cliffs and stunning views. It is an ideal town for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Here’s how you can spend 48 hours in Victor Harbor.

Day 1

9:00 am: Explore Granite Island

Indulge in a short stroll or horse tram ride over the wooden causeway that connects the mainland Victor Harbor to Granite Island.  Home to little penguins, the best way to experience these cute creatures is by booking a tour at Granite Island.  For the more adventurous travellers, hit the Kaiki Walking Trail which is a 1.9km loop walk from the mainland by crossing the causeway.

1:00 pm: Enjoy a meal at Nino’s Café

From stone oven pizzas to hearty burgers, Nino’s café is a great place to take a mid-day break.

3:00 pm: Take in the stunning Hindmarsh Falls

Experienced best in winter or after heavy rainfall, the Hindmarsh Falls are located around 20km from Victor Harbor. These falls are quite easily viewable from a lookout at the end of a short hike. 

Day 2

11:00 am: Pat a Koala and feed the Kangaroo at Urimbirra Wildlife Park

Located in Hindmarsh Valley, just 5 minutes’ drive from Victor Harbor, Urimbirra Wildlife Park is great for  families wanting to meet some local wildlife, with a range of Australian native animals including koalas, and kangaroos and emus. Be sure to visit at 11:00 am or 2:00pm for a chance to pat the koalas.
