K.I...Day 6

Sunday, 8th April, 2018

Today we packed up camp and headed to Snelling Beach which is where we are staying the next 2 nights in accommodation.  Rather than tow Pearl all the way down to the Flinders Chase National Park, we'll leave her there then check in later this afternoon.
~

It is only about 100kms down to the national park, some dirt road then bitumen.
~

We arrived and had lunch (chicken baguettes) at FCNP Visitor Centre before making our way down to see Admirals Arch.  The board walk it great access for those who don't like steps and also for wheelchairs.

It is really overcast and muggy so the colour of the ocean is not it's best.  It would be spectacular on a blue sky sunny day...
~

Can you spot the seals basking on the rocks?

A few flights of steps leading down to the viewing points...

Weirs Cove

The best looking 4WD on Kangaroo Island!
~

Coastal view on our way to see Remarkable Rocks...
~

~

By the time we go here, there were lots of people clambering all over the rocks and because is was quite hot and muggy, we decided this was as close as we needed to get...call us lazy! 
~
We drove back the way we came then continued onto Snelling Beach (it was about a 5 hour round trip including the sightseeing) and arrived just after 3pm.

This is our lovely accommodation...

Sunroom with a view...

The bushfire has opened up the view of the beach, pity its all charred!
~

~

Time for a well earned gin!  We had the mulberry gin with ginger beer - delicious!
~

What a view!
~

Dinner time!  I made a focaccia...
~

~

...to go with the spaghetti bolognese...

Sunset on a perfect day...
