Matthew Flinders Terraces is a stylish, comfortable and relaxing base from which the wonders of Kangaroo Island can be reached on daily explorations. Situated just 25 minutes from the ferry terminal at Penneshaw and 20 minutes from the airport at Kingscote, the small fishing village of American River is a wonderful untouched coastal holiday destination.
The recently upgraded self contained accommodation at Matthew Flinders Terraces is nestled into a terraced hillside - each unit having its own private deck with uninterrupted bay views across to the famous Island Beach with the chance to capture the spectacular morning sunrises.
 

Eight 2 bed roomed self contained units with separate sleeping and living areas offer peace and tranquillity and the opportunity to truly experience the local native animal and bird life in the surrounding bush garden and along the nearby coastline. The rare red tailed Black Cockatoo feeds in trees just metres from the units.
A short stroll takes you to the wharf area for daily fishing charters and boat tours and the best value fresh oysters. A nocturnal wildlife tour is available locally and a walk at dusk will reveal dozens of wallabies grazing on the streets of American River including the occasional resident wallaby in the grounds of Matthew Flinders Terraces.
