Welcome to new travel horizons on
the Eyre Peninsula
Eyre Peninsula
is a vast region stretching from Whyalla in the east to the W.A. - S.A. border in the west,
a distance of 1,000km, and 400km, in the north-south direction from the Gawler Ranges to Port Lincoln.
The Spencer Gulf borders the eastern edge of the Peninsula along which are located a number of small
coastal towns featuring sheltered waters, safe swimming, white sandy beaches and excellent fishing from
either shore or boat. The charm and tranquillity of the peaceful resort towns of
Cowell, Arno Bay and
Port Neill has a natural appeal which draws the visitor back again and again.
Whyalla is the second largest city in S. A. and acts as an important gateway to Eyre Peninsula. Located
near the top of Spencer Gulf this bustling, industrially based city also offers a diverse range of
attractions for the visitor.
The southern Eyre Peninsula encompasses the tourist resort towns of Tumby Bay, famous for its fishing
and beautiful offshore islands, the magnificent sheltered waters of Coffin Bay, and the jewel in the
crown, the city of Port Lincoln nestled on blue Boston Bay.
