Vivonne Bay

Edit Spot
About

lots of sharks, one time me and a mate were out surfing and it started getting real overcast and something didn't feel right so we left. Later we found out just after we left 200 bronze whalers came though in the shallows chasing a school of salmon.. aaargh

Atmosphere:
Vivonne Bay is a long strech of beach, crystal blue waters and sand so white it could blind you.. real good vibe about the place...

Additional Info:
just watch out for sharks, park at main carpark

Head to Vivonne Bay park your car at the main beach, walk onto the beach and you'll see many breaks. I wont tell you the best ones you can find them yourself...

Located on south coast of Kangaroo Island not to far from the Little Sahara Desert, once won the best beach in Australia award the waters look perfect exept there's a lot of sharks. seal bay is around the corner from it and also a Great White breeding ground aswel so not a good idea to be out there the whole day, I stayed out for 6 hours for two days in a row but never saw a shark but they had have to had been there. I do advise you go there though one of the best beaches i've seen even if you don't wanna go out for a surf, just a hell fun beach
