The island is flat so Ok for walking or cycling to view the wild life. Loads of Kangaroos, birds, koalas, echidnas etc. Access is via a car ferry $13 return for a car, free for people and cycles, and the queue can be long, waiting 20 minutes some times. The island has no shops, so need to bring your supplies or catch the ferry for loads of choices of cafe, restaurants and shops. However, the small town does not have extended shopping or cafe hours so check (eg Sunday morning cafes opened at 10 am). Mainly a boating and fishing district, no sandy beaches for swiming. Very quiet and peacful, not much traffic and it all goes slow. Watch for kangaroos on the roads including in the township at night. Bring insect repellant. Also check the ferry, it goes offline for maintenance for two weeks every year.
