An artificial "Swim with the Tuna" commercial facility proposed for the waters off Kangaroo Island is entirely inconsistent with the region’s clean and green image and should be immediately rejected.

The Friends of KI support calls by local businesses and environmental groups to scrap the proposed Swim with the Tuna development, which threatens the Island’s natural heritage and pristine environment and jeopardises existing ecosystems.

The Friends of Kangaroo Island are passionate about developing the Island’s world-renowned "clean and green" image and upholding the region’s brand promise as a "wild and welcoming natural destination".

If you care about Kangaroo Island’s pristine environment and global reputation as a natural wonder, become a supporter of the Friends of KI.
