Winter Whale Watching & Wildlife Encounter
4 days, 4 nights (Seaonal only JULy - September)
Your opportunity to view majestic southern right and humpback whales
Imagine standing on the edge of the Great Australian Bight, watching southern right and humpback whales frolic just offshore as they nurture their young. With Australian Coastal Safaris, you’ll not only witness these ocean giants but also experience dolphins, sea lions, fur seals, penguins, albatross and even hear humpbacks “chat” via an underwater hydrophone on a Fowlers Bay cruise. Your journey begins in Ceduna, exploring Aboriginal art, Penong’s famous windmills, the pink shimmer of Lake MacDonnell, and the wild beauty of Davenport Creek. From there, adventure flows along the coast, massive sand dunes, secluded bays, and charming towns including Smoky Bay, Streaky Bay, and Elliston, with natural wonders like Murphy’s Haystacks and Talia Caves along the way. In Port Lincoln, the focus turns to land-based wildlife, best koala experience in Australia, native kangaroos, emus, reptiles, birdlife, and rare native flora across Lincoln National Park and the hamlet of Tulka. The perfect finale? Local seafood, a glass of fine Eyre Peninsula wine, and time to reflect on an unforgettable journey across South Australia’s Wild Side.

What a wonderful and memorable week we had, the sense of quiet, calm security that pervaded the Top of the Bight with The Southern Right Whales and the calves appearing so at home, coming face to face with koalas in the wild when I thought I had “done” koalas, all these experiences were highlighted by your enthusiasm and your personal inside knowledge of the people and industry of the area provided us with a special, not to be beaten adventure. Thank you.

Top Notch, this tour was great from start to finish. Could go on forever but you need to go and experience it for yourself.
