Apart from kangaroos, the native bushlands of KI also provide habitat to numerous animals indigenous to Australia such as Koalas, Echidnas, Heath Goannas, Bush and Swamp Rat, Little Pygmy Possum and Black Tiger Snake. Thrill seekers booking flights to take a look at exotic marine species only found in Australia must consider diving into the pristine waters of coastal areas to take a look at vivid world that resides underwater. While excursing through the waters, adventurous souls would come across seals, sea lions and various fish species. Besides surfing, the ocean waters also offer favourable conditions to indulge in fishing, surfing and sailing.
