10 kms from home, the farm gate will not disappoint with an incredible range of home made condiments. The mayonnaise is stunning, how about limoncello marmalade and amazing olives. We’ll worth a visit and please take cash as they don’t have card facilities.

Glossy Black Cockatoos have thrived in American River with the support of the locals. Look for the Sheoak trees that have been protected from wildlife and seen the population that was almost extinct, now growing in numbers… and not found anywhere else in the world.

Cách đi lại

Petrol stations

There are only 2 petrol stations and are located at the opposite end of the Island. It’s a good idea to fill up either in Normanville before the ferry ride or in Penneshaw which has 24 hour electronic payment facility. There is a petrol station in Kingscote which is 30 kms from American River.

Ferry ride

If it’s looking a bit windy and choppy, it is worthwhile to take a quell before you embark. Also a good tip to get there early for easier access to drive on.

Pet day care

Jan’s pet care is a wonderful service. Leave your fur babies with Jan who is in Kingscote so you can have a travel day exploring the National parks with Admirals Arch and Remarkable Rocks.
