Cheap Flights to King Island, Australia from New Zealand

King Island is one of the islands that comprised the state of Tasmania, Australia. This group of islands is also known as Hunter Group Islands. King Island is situated in the Bass Strait on the north-western tip of the main island of Tasmania and halfway between Tasmania and Victoria. King Island is an important transport hub for ships and is a popular island tourist destination due to its peaceful and panoramic sight of the pristine and vast ocean.

King Island’s main attraction is the Cape Wickham lighthouse and is Australia’s tallest lighthouse. The lighthouse was built in 1861 and has saved many ships from wrecking and smashing on the rocky shores since then. It is worth to visit the King Island Historical Museum which presents the memorabilia of tragic shipwrecks that happened in the island. The museum is the former lighthouse keeper’s home.

For nature enthusiasts, a lovely view is offered by the Calcified Forest, a petrified forest with all of the remains of the ancient forest that aged more than 7000 years old. The forest was revealed when Roaring Forties storms wearied the lime-laden sand, which covered the stumps. King Island offers a great sight of more than 70 species of migratory birds ranging from penguins to shearwaters. These various species of birds flock on the island during spring and summer. The island’s Sea Elephant River is a home for water birds.
