Description

Granite Island, known to the Ramindjeri people as Nulcoowarra, is a small island next to Victor Harbor, South Australia, 80 km south of Adelaide. There are no permanent residents, but there is a cafe. It is a popular tourist attraction, especially for people wanting to see little fairy penguins who live there. There are huge, unusually shaped granite boulders covered in bright lichen along the cliffs and an easy walking track loops around the top of the island. The island is accessible across a causeway from the mainland, either on foot or by catching an antique horse-drawn tram.
