Winter Wonders on the Wild Side: Why Port Lincoln’s Off-Season is the Ultimate On-Switch

Why Winter? Why Now?

When the summer buzz fades, the Eyre Peninsula transforms. The air is crisp, the land breathes green, and there’s a calm stillness that lets you reconnect with nature, with food, and with yourself.

Here’s what makes winter with Australian Coastal Safaris so wildly good:

• Wildlife, uninterrupted – See emus, koalas, kangaroos, sea lions, and birds of prey in their element, minus the tourist traffic.
• Seafood at its peak – Winter delivers the freshest catch. Enjoy it beachside, grilled over coals, or paired with local gin by the fire.
• Fireside flavours – Slow down with warming meals, private bush picnics, and cool-climate Eyre Peninsula wines.
• Electric Mountain Biking – Glide across coastal trails and lush tracks, with the e-bike doing the hard work.
• Beach fishing & treks – Solitude meets scenery on guided hikes and sandy fishing spots you’ll likely have to yourself.
• Campfire connection – Wind down under the stars with red wine, local stories, and marshmallows (yes, we’re that wholesome).
• Wild Nature – Misty cliffs, glassy bays, ancient dunes, spectacular waves and wildlife wandering through the background? Go on...
