Attractions When You Arrive in King Island
Wild Coasts, Surf and Coastal Walks
King Island’s shoreline is raw, beautiful and blissfully uncrowded. Wander windswept headlands, photograph sea-spray at rugged cliffs and stroll long arcs of sand where yours might be the only footprints. Experienced surfers target Martha Lavinia Beach, a globally regarded break within Lavinia State Reserve, while walkers can follow coastal tracks to hidden coves and rock pools teeming with life. Birdwatchers should keep an eye skyward for graceful terns and sea eagles, and scan the shallows for rays and schools of fish that cruise the crystalline waters after calm spells.
Golf With Ocean Drama
Few golfing destinations rival the theatre of King Island. Fairways twist across dunes with uninterrupted horizons and sea breezes that shape every shot. At the island’s northern tip, Cape Wickham Links threads around a historic lighthouse with holes playing right along the shoreline. Closer to Currie, Ocean Dunes serves up dramatic carries and clifftop greens. Both courses welcome visiting players and offer hire gear and carts, making it easy to add a championship-level round—or two—to a weekend itinerary built around tastings and coastal exploring.
Gourmet Island: Dairy, Beef and Seafood
The island’s reputation as a gourmet hotspot is well earned. Begin with a tasting at King Island Dairy, famous for rich bries, blues and cheddar styles that reflect pristine pastures. Menus across cafés and bistros celebrate paddock-to-plate dining, from grass-fed beef to crayfish and abalone landed in local waters. Pick up pantry treasures at small farm gates, then book a table to watch the sunset over the Southern Ocean with a platter of local cheeses and a glass of Tasmanian cool-climate wine—an essential King Island experience in any season.
History, Lighthouses and Shipwreck Stories
Maritime history threads through King Island, where storms and reefs have claimed vessels for over two centuries. Heritage displays and interpretive trails recount tales of survival and community resilience, while lighthouses stand sentinel over shipping lanes. Drive to Cape Wickham Light, among the tallest in the Southern Hemisphere, for sweeping views and a sense of the island’s isolation and allure. In the townships of Currie and Naracoopa, friendly locals, small museums and coastal lookouts invite unhurried exploration between beach walks, tastings and rounds of golf.
