We had been on the road for just over a month and a half on our travel around Australia in 185 days, and had covered a lot of territory during this time. We’d already travelled from the Gold Coast down the New South Wales coastline to Victoria and the Limestone Coast of South Australia until…
The Eyre Peninsula is a travel experience you won’t want to miss. There are few experiences in life that can parallel the surreal opportunity of interacting with wildlife in their natural environments.
