Adelaide Central Market and two days of wildlife on Kangaroo Island.
Adelaide is a relaxed city known for food and wine. Start at the Central Market, then take the ferry to Kangaroo Island, a wildlife haven: see kangaroos, koalas, sea lions on the beach at Seal Bay, and the wind-sculpted Remarkable Rocks and Admirals Arch in Flinders Chase. Book the ferry ahead in summer; October to April is best.
The Adelaide Central Market opened in 1869 and is one of the largest undercover fresh produce markets in the Southern Hemisphere. Over 70 traders sell fruit, vegetables, cheese, meats, bakery goods and specialty foods. It is a lively hub of the city's food culture, located beside Victoria Square.
Kangaroo Island is Australia's third-largest island, off the coast of South Australia. Over a third of the island is protected, and it is known for wildlife such as kangaroos, koalas, sea lions and echidnas. In Flinders Chase National Park, the Remarkable Rocks and Admirals Arch are its most famous natural landmarks.
