Nocturnal Night Tour
Join King Island Tours under the stars. Nature provides the backdrop; we provide the storytelling, the transportation and, of course, a unique dining experience at Wild Harvest, all included.
King Island has its own penguin colony. Discover our gorgeous little penguins as they come back to nest each evening. Always dependent on nature, the moon and the tides, be delighted at dusk as these groups make their way back to shore.
A night out with nature and gourmet food
Your journey begins at pick-up. Your local guide, well versed in King Island knowledge, starts the evening with the island itself: the facts, the history and the small things you would otherwise drive past, on the short road trip to the award-winning Wild Harvest.
The cuisine is sea to table or paddock to plate, your choice. Beef, crayfish, or a vegan meal.
After dinner the coastline unlocks its magic. A full interpretation of the fairy penguin unfolds right in front of you, along with the other stories of our nocturnal friends, the sunsets, the moon and the stars.
We don’t control nature. But we love to watch it, and you can too.
Voted Australia’s best fine dining restaurant by Tripadvisor’s Travellers’ Choice awards, Wild Harvest is a short drive from the colony, which is what makes the two halves of this evening work together.
This unique tour includes
- Viewing the penguins at dusk, from inside the vehicle
- 2 course dinner at Wild Harvest
