Handy Tips

  • View from the Bluff are spectacular - but the 500m climb requires some moderate fitness.

  • A ride of the Horse Tram is a must-do when you're in Victor Harbor; a return trip takes 40 minutes, but you can ride one-way & walk back. The Causeway is 632m long (over half a kilometre!).

  • Be sure to meet our little penguins on Granite Island but remember to check visitor guidelines. Outside summer, on-dusk tours on the island can get cold!
