About this property

Ironbark Beach House Carrickalinga

A modern home, very comfortable, light and bright. Short distance to beach. Open plan living, front and rear deck. Pet friendly with prior consent.

Locality

Carrickalinga is in the vicinity of several wineries and fishing spots. It is only a 30 minute drive to Victor Harbor where whale watching has become a popular pastime. Views of Kangaroo Island can be seen from nearby Cape Jervis.

The beaches are wide with white sand that stretches down to the pristine water. Haycock Point, a much-photographed volcanic outcrop, separates North Carrickalinga and South Carrickalinga beaches.

Tjilbruke's trail follows the coastline through Carrickalinga.

The Tour Down Under bicycle race passes through the region each year.
