About Eyre Peninsula

Who said that coastlines were meant to be crowded?

At most coastal spots around the world, people jostle for space like seagulls squabbling over a discarded hamburger.

If you think all of this is too much hard work, you might want to take your next holiday on the Eyre Peninsula.

The Eyre Peninsula has more than 2,000 kilometres of coastline, so finding some space to yourself is never a problem.

From a vantage point high atop a sheer limestone cliff, you can watch whales as the swim on their annual migration through the Southern Ocean.

You can soak up the sun or do a spot of surfing on one of the region's many beaches. Pick the right spot, and chances are that you could have the beach all to yourself.

If you're keen on a spot of fishing, try dangling a line from a coastal jetty, take a rod down to a beach and cast away, or take a tour on a fishing charter.

And you can take a road trip to explore the ancient Nullarbor Plain, and see caves formed more than 25 million years ago. Or, you can venture into the wilderness of our national parks, and see abundant native wildlife and flora.


Creature Comforts

While you can get as much space to yourself as you need, there's also plenty of creature comforts on offer.

So, while you're in the area, be sure to follow our Seafood and Aquaculture Trail, sink your teeth into some of the freshest seafood you're ever going to taste, and wash your meal down with an award-winning local wine.

There's also plenty of places to stay, including luxury marina apartments, hotels and motels, comfortable caravan parks and camping grounds - you can even stay at some of the region's farm stations.

So, if you want a holiday without the crowds, head to the Eyre Peninsula. It's one of the best ways you can choose to unwind, relax, and recharge.
