Kingscote is located in the northeast corner of Kangaroo Island (Kangaroo Island), the largest island and tourist resort in South Australia. It is the largest town on Kangaroo Island. It is about 95 kilometers from Flinders Chase National Park (Flinders Chase National Park) and 42 kilometers from the port of Penny Shaw (Penneshaw). The town is well-equipped and has many sea view hotels. Many tourists use Kingscote as a foothold in Kangaroo Island.
The most famous of Kingscote are wild pelicans with super big mouths but sprouts. Locals John bring a box of fish to feed the pelicans at 17:00 every day, missing only four days for twenty years, almost every Christmas. Pelicans began to look forward to the date at 16:30, gathered, and people followed, sitting on wharf wooden benches waiting for the opening of the show. Pelicans smelled fish, began to stir, and seabirds smelled the wind. Standing on the John hat. As the fish went out, the pelicans jumped and scrambled, opened their own big pockets to quickly capture the spoils, and John really turned it into a big show, and finally took the rest of the fish into the water, followed closely by the pelicans. There was a lively "fish grab war" on the water. The children clapped their hands happily, and the adults could not help smiling at such a vivid scene.
The number of pelicans living in Kingscote has fallen dramatically since John and tourists were unhappily cost-conscious in 2017 and boycott, by local travel companies, coupled with physical reasons, stopped the two-decade-long campaign.
Kingscote Airport (Kingscote Airport), located in the southwest suburb of the town, is a small regional airport with fixed routes to and from Adelaide and seasonal routes to and from Melbourne.
