Day 2 - Eyre Peninsula

Tour Itinerary (Adelaide to Perth, 10 Day Tour)

The Eyre Peninsula is one of those great secrets not many people have yet discovered. Teeming with some of Australia's most amazing and outstanding real wildlife experiences, the lack of a nearby major airport and too far to drive for most domestic travellers, this piece of paradise is one that only those who have been, can give that knowing smile of discovery of a very special place indeed.

Today we make our way through the Gawler Ranges to see abundant wildlife roaming in their natural environment. The tour then heads to the coast and begin to check out the stunning coastline.

Todays highlight is at Bairds Bay which is a sublime stretch of coastline where we can spend time on the beach and having a swim and an opportunity to experience one of Australia's most unique wildlife experiences of swimming with dolphins and sea lions. This incredible optional wildlife experience involves a four hour boat cruise. We find the friendly populations and can swim and snorkel amongst them. There is nothing that can parallel the feeling of communing with wild creatures such as these.

We then visit the famous Murphy's Haystacks - the weird and wonderful - 100,000 year old granite inselbergs shaped by the sands of time.

Its then on to beautiful Venus Bay - a shelterd bay where on an enjoyable coastal walk we catch sight of dolphins as they frolic in and out of the waves.

Over night at Coodlie Park Farm Retreat - a unique accommodation and experience facility. Our hosts Hassie and Jo take us on an unique nocturnal spotlighting tour looking for Australia's National Emblems - kangaroos, wombats and emus.
