Victor Harbor & Granite Island
Victor Harbor / Granite Island
A seaside town on the southern coast of the Fleurieu Peninsula. Walk along the causeway or take a horse-drawn tram to Granite Island. In winter, you can spot whales from the shore.
Victor Harbor is about 80 km from Adelaide, a 1 hour 15 minute drive. A causeway links the town to Granite Island. The historic horse-drawn tram runs during the peak season. A walking trail circles the island for about 1.5 km, with huge granite boulders and sea views. From June to October, southern right whales often appear in the bay, and the South Australian Whale Centre provides whale-watching information. The town also has the Cockle Train, a steam train that runs to the seaside town of Goolwa.
