Take the historic horse-drawn tram or simply walk across the causeway from Victor Harbor to Granite Island. By day the island offers fishing, walking, para-sailing, whale watching, harbour cruises and a gift-shop. Dine at the bistro or enjoy wonderful views of Encounter Bay by following the footpath around the island. Whales, dolphins and seals are sometimes seen basking in the waters close to shore. At sunset you can take a harbour cruise and return in time for a guided tour of the island's Little Penguin colony. Contact the Island Office for tour and cruise details.
