... "The Oyster Farm Shop", American River Kangaroo Island farm Pacific oysters in the pristine waters of eastern cove ... best oysters I've ever tried. King George whiting, the favourite fish of South Australians is caught locally. Marron, a freshwater crayfish native to Western Australia were introduced to Kangaroo Island where they are now commercially farmed. They are highly sought after by top chefs and restaurants. Yabbies are also a fresh water crustacean, smaller in size much like a crawfish.

Remarkable Rocks, Kangaroo Island

rogersmithpix posted a photo:

Perched above the sea in Flinders Chase National Park, Remarkable Rocks form what appear to be a cluster of precariously balanced granite boulders. This stunning work of nature has been shaped by the erosive forces of wind, sea spray and rain over some 500 million years.

Cape du Couedic - 'Life on the Edge'

rogersmithpix posted a photo:

Remote and very isolated, Cape du Couedic is the south-western point of Kangaroo Island, off the coast of South Australia. Plants and animals have adapted over time to survive in this harsh and fragile place. An extensive boardwalk gives visitors the opportunity to observe a large fur seal colony on the rocky shoreline.

.. at Stokes Bay, a remote location on Kangaroo Island ... the cafe is unpretentious with concrete floor, open sides and fibre glass roof but the food is good. I enjoyed crumbed fish and chips while watching little fairy wrens flittering all about.

Frenchman's Rock

rogersmithpix posted a photo:

In 1803 Captain Nicolas Baudin, the French explorer, anchored in Hog Bay and sent a party ashore to find fresh meat and water. While waiting for the water casks to fill, one of the sailors carved on a nearby rock, 'Expedition de decouverte par le commandant Baudin sur le Geographe 1803'. Translated it reads, 'Expedition of discovery by Captain Baudin in the Geographe 1803'. The white domed structure marks the site.
