King Island
Gourmet & Nature Tour
Three days of world-class cheese, dramatic coastlines, towering lighthouses, award-winning distillery spirits, and untouched wilderness — all on one remarkable island in Bass Strait.
Australia's Great Island Secret
King Island sits in the middle of Bass Strait — remote, wild, and entirely its own world. It's famous the world over for its dairy, beef, and seafood, but it's also home to some of Australia's most dramatic coastal scenery: towering lighthouses, white sand beaches, crashing Southern Ocean surf, and sweeping farmland stretching to the horizon.
This three-day escape takes a small group of travellers inside the island's best experiences — from a private guided tasting at King Island Dairy to coffee at one of the world's great golf courses, gin and whisky at the local distillery, farm visits with producers, and remote beaches most Australians never reach.
Everything is included — flights, accommodation, all meals, every entry fee and tasting, and a professional local guide who knows every corner of the island. You simply arrive at Melbourne Airport.
Accommodation options: Island Breeze Motel, King Island Hotel, or Boomerang by the Sea — all centrally located in Currie.
