Limestone Coast

Forged over 26 million years by the primal forces of the ocean and the movement of tectonic plates, the Limestone Coast has been perfectly sculpted into a natural playground. Rugged, wave beaten coastlines, clear blue waters and secluded beaches blend brilliantly with lush farming country, volcanic craters, caves, vistas of vineyards and never-ending pine forests.

On your pilgrimage between Adelaide and Melbourne, slow down and take some time to explore this year-round holiday destination. Whether you travel along the coast or inland through the heart of the region there is always plenty to see and do.

Explore the Naracoorte World Heritage fossil site and underground caves. Take a wine pilgrimage through the Coonawarra, Mount Benson and Padthaway wine regions where robust reds blend brilliantly with local produce. Follow the Volcanic Discovery Trail and unravel the mystery behind the Blue Lake colour change. Travel through the picturesque coastal ports from the Coorong to Port MacDonnell and experience the atmosphere at the height of rock lobster season. Or take some time to play a round of golf at any one of our 17 premier golf courses.

It may have taken 26 million years to create the Limestone Coast. But good things are worth the wait.
