Eyre Peninsula Whale & Seafood Discovery 2020

This morning we explore the secluded Clare Valley beginning with a tour of Bungaree Station, an historic complex dating back to 1841. Bungaree was once an extensive sheep station that carried over 100,000 Merino sheep, and today is still run by descendants of the original founders. Later this morning we’ll visit a renowned Clare Valley winery for lunch and wine tastings. We then continue our journey north, arriving in Port Augusta later this afternoon. We spend the night at the Standpipe Golf Motor Inn. Meals: B.L.D

Port Lincoln is a town of approximately 12,000 people and was originally considered a site for the state’s capital. The township is located on the banks of beautiful Boston Bay which is three and a half times the size of Sydney Harbour. The town is the base for Australia’s largest tuna fleet and tuna farming industry. Tuna fishing has been extremely lucrative in recent years and has created some very wealthy people. In fact, there are more millionaires per capita in Port Lincoln than anywhere else in Australia!

This morning we journey to the foot of the Eyre Peninsula and travel along the Whalers Way, a 14km long series of unsealed tracks which traverse through private property. This fully guided interpretive tour takes in the spectacular rugged coastal scenery of the area, with many points of interest and stunning views over the Southern Ocean.

After lunch we join the two hour Seafood Bay Cruise for some sightseeing across the beautiful waters of Boston Bay and learn about the Tuna and Aquaculture Industries with expert local commentary. Tour includes fresh seafood tastings of tuna, prawns and mussels and the history behind the fishing/aquaculture industries presented by the experienced, local guides.

We arrive back at our hotel later this afternoon for our second night in Australia’s Seafood Capital. Meals: B.L.D

This morning we depart Port Lincoln and make our way to Coffin Bay for a tour and tastings at Coffin Bay Oysters. We then travel further up the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula, visiting Murphy’s Hay Stacks and Streaky Bay before arriving in Ceduna. Home to around 4,000 people, Ceduna is the last major town before you cross the Nullarbor from east to west. We spend the next two nights at the Ceduna Foreshore Hotel. Meals: B.L.D

This morning we say farewell to the Eyre Peninsula and head around to the local airport. Included in your tour fare is a one-way flight with Regional Express, from Ceduna to Adelaide.
