Information

Victor Harbor is a large tourist town also catering for whale watching and has a unique horse drawn tram trip across the causeway to Granite Island, home of a “Little Penguin” colony. Welcome to South Australia's unique coastal paradise! Boasting historic charm, spectacular seascapes, land formations and an abundance of wildlife. Only 80 km, or just over an hours drive, south of Adelaide, Victor Harbor is one of South Australia's most accessible coastal playgrounds.

The town, which overlooks historic Encounter Bay and the Southern Ocean, is a short drive from Cape Jervis and the ferry to Kangaroo Island. The approach from Melbourne is one of the most attractive journeys in Australia, especially along the coast and through the Fleurieu Peninsula.

Victor Harbor has a classic Mediterranean climate that is moderated by its proximity to the Southern Ocean, which provides cooling sea breezes at the end of each warm summer's day. Its maritime location also means Victor Harbor has mild, attractive winters, making it suitable for holidays all year round.
