    Kingscote

    Dec 8–15, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    Left our accommodation at American River early, around 8am. Got a coffee from KI roasters from a coffee van on the beach. Good coffee!!
    Headed to Kingscote, stopped at the Island Beehive store. A great store with heaps of honey products. Bought some honey as we couldn't bring any with us. Great shop 👌! We got honey ice-creams & enjoyed them while sitting outside in the sun. Only about 18 degrees today but it was warm in the sun as there was no wind.
    Went into Kingscote & went out on the Jetty.
    Then walked down the main street, managed to get some books for free from the Op shop.
    Went to Emu Bay & visited the Emu Bay lavender shop where we had lunch. I had pork dumplings with salad & Peter had goat curry - both were good. Place was not as accessible as advertised.
    Went to Shoal Bay & visited the Winery 🍷.
    Did some tasting & bought some. Pelicans came up to us at the beach.
    Arrived back to American River late afternoon.    Read more
