Sometimes, the most breathtaking adventures don’t require a passport - just a shift in perspective. Right here in Australia, natural beauty often lies waiting just beyond our doorstep. For those craving a sense of remoteness, there are hidden corners and offshore islands that offer a strikingly different escape.

Take Kangaroo Island, southwest of Adelaide - a place where rugged coastlines meet dramatic rock formations, and over a third of the land is protected wilderness teeming with native wildlife. If it’s vast, untamed nature you’re after, it’s just a short flight away.
