Information

When you set foot on Flinders Island you step into an awe-inspiring world of sparkling beaches, rugged ranges, abundant wildlife, flora and clear sapphire waters. Discover the jagged mountains that jut from the wild ocean like giant sea creatures proudly presenting their bounty to all and sundry. These remarkable ‘mountains in the sea’ offer a rare experience you won’t find anywhere else on earth.

There are plenty of activities to enjoy all year round, from walking, fishing and bird watching to combing miles of deserted beaches.

The climate of this region is generally mild as the sea has a moderating effect protecting the islands from extreme temperatures. Winds are predominantly westerly and can blow unabated for several days during late winter and spring, with cooling sea breezes during the summer months.

Flinders Island has four main townships in Whitemark, Lady Barron, Emita and Killiecrankie where the majority of our population reside. The remainder of residents live on farms throughout the centre of the Island or remote coastal properties.

Car hire on the island is available. There is no public transport.
