Eyre Peninsula

South Australia, Australia

Overview

The Eyre Peninsula boasts fantastic food and wine, luxury accommodation and abundant wildlife, but it’s best known for its world-famous aquatic activities. Rex and QantasLink will get you to Port Lincoln where you can hop aboard a shark cage dive or swim and play with sea lions off the coast of Port Lincoln.

Watch whales and their calves frolic under towering, wave-ravaged cliffs. Sink your teeth into the Eyre Peninsula’s legendary oysters and freshly-caught seafood at the local fish mongers then wash it down at the region’s signature wineries along the Seafood Frontier road trip.
