Must do experiences on Flinders Island
Furneaux Museum
Visit the Furneaux Museum and learn about the cultural and natural history of the Furneaux Group of Islands – shipwrecks, farming, families, settlements, mutton birding and the local flora and fauna – housed in the historic buildings themselves.
Local produce
Shop for local produce on the island in the supermarkets at Lady Barron and Whitemark. Pick up provisions for a feast such as seafood, mutton birds, fresh fish and cheese.
Fossicking
Fossick for Killiecrankie diamonds and sparkling gems at Mines Creek and Diamond Creek. Killiecrankie diamonds are actually a form of topaz and found in tones of ice blue, pink, gold and clear.
Walkers Lookout
Take a late afternoon trip to Walkers Lookout and watch the sunset over a magnificent vista. It’s a great vantage point to see the island in all directions on a clear day.
