Today we arrive on the Eyre Peninsula, one of Australia’s hidden gems. The area is a spectacular landscape of red rock ranges and stunning beaches, with a large range of native wildlife. Being a bit off the beaten path, very few tourists visit the area, but as you will discover – they are missing out!
But before we start our exploration of The Eyre Peninsula, we begin the day with the awesome hike through Davey’s Gulley for amazing panoramic views across the Spencer Gulf. Then we’ll pass remarkable silo art in the country town of Kimba on our way to the coast. We’ll have a quick lunch stop, prior to continuing our journey back on the road en route to Venus Bay and Talia Caves. Accommodation for the night, will be located at Coodlie Park, where we enjoy a Aussie BBQ on a working farm.

On day three we may join up with the group coming from Perth en route to Adelaide. The Eyre Peninsula is well known for its water wildlife, and this will allow you to either swim, snorkel, or splash around with the sea lions and dolphins on a 3-hour cruise at Baird Bay. This highly recommended tour is optional and can be added for $180 – an experience you will treasure forever. If you prefer to stay on land, you have the morning free to enjoy as you want.
Concluding day three, we head to Mikkara Station to set up camp and get some photos with some of the 170 or so wild koalas that call the area home!
Accommodation: Swag camping
Optional activities:
Swim with dolphins and sea lions: Or perhaps a slightly less scary wildlife encounter is what you are after? Then a swim with dolphins and sea lions might be more up your alley. Add a 3-hour cruise from Baird Bay to your tour for a truly magical experience with these playful water animals – $180 per person
Please mention at the time of booking if you wish to add this optional extra to your tour.
Day four tests the fears of participants on the tour, as you will have the opportunity to swim with Great White Shark (own expense) on an optional cruise. For those who are not keen on swimming with the sharks, we’ll travel along Whaler’s Way to take in the spectacular coastal scenery this part of South Australia is famous for. We’ll visit the Wadlata Culture Centre and hopefully spot some local emus and kangaroos. We’ll meet back up for lunch in the Lincoln National Park before heading to Warren Gorge to set up camp.
Optional activities:
Shark cage dive: Want some real adventure? Add an exciting Shark Cage Dive tour to the Neptune Islands for an up-close encounter with the scariest beast of the ocean, the Great White Shark – $389 to $564. Read more about this thrilling upgrade and the differences between the options available here.

Get ready to hit the waves on day five! We head to Fisheries Bay for a two-hour surf lesson in the sheltered waters. Those not wanting to surf can spend the time exploring or chilling out on the beach. In the afternoon we head to Warren Gorge in the Flinders Ranges. Before we set up camp, we have time to explore the area and hopefully spot a rare yellow-footed rock wallaby.

Our final day sees us on the home stretch, with arrival into Adelaide being the final stop on the tour. We enjoy one last hike, Dutchmen Stern, before starting the journey back to Adelaide.
