King Island

King Island is exactly what it sounds like – an island that sits smack bang between Victoria and Tasmania. Home to more wallabies than humans (the local population sits around 300) and a world-class surf break, King Island is a cruisy community that attracts a cruisy crowd of travellers. If cheese is your vice, King Island is known for its bevvy of dairy goodies. And if you need to work off all that cheese, the island’s golf course is rated among the top five public courses in Australia. Whether you choose to relax in an island cabin at the main town of Currie or splurge on a luxury retreat at Porky Beach, the island is your oyster.
