SHIP WRECKS OF KANGAROO ISLAND

Kangaroo Island acted as a destructive magnet to many ships both large and small and has caused the loss of lives of a number of people over the recorded maritime history.

There are possibly unrecorded disappearances and wrecks still  to be discovered lying in the waters off the coasts.
A large number of sealers and whalers plied the coastline here unrecorded and disappeared without trace, whether that was off the island coast or not can only be speculated but as so many tragedies occurred here it is reasonable to assume that on some coasts of Kangaroo Island rest never to be told stories of hardships that the sailors endured.
