What to see and do in the Eyre Peninsula

Choosing a campervan, caravan, motorhome & RV hire for your Eyre Peninsula journey is the best way to experience South Australia’s "Seafood Frontier." This region is vast, rugged, and best explored at your own pace. By hiring from a local owner, you’re not just getting a vehicle; you’re getting the inside word on the best secret campsites and the freshest local catch.

Scenic drives

Scenic drives

The drive along Whalers Way offers some of the most dramatic coastal scenery in Australia, with ancient cliffs and blowholes that will make you glad you have your own mobile base to stop and take it all in. For a change of colour, point your motorhome toward the Nullarbor and stop at Lake MacDonnell; the contrast of the bubblegum pink water against the turquoise sea is a sight you have to see to believe.

Nature & Parks

Nature & Parks

From the turquoise waters of Coffin Bay National Park to the ancient red volcanic peaks of the Gawler Ranges, the diversity here is staggering. Keep an eye out for the "Organ Pipes" rock formations in the ranges, or head to Lincoln National Park for a morning hike along the Investigator Trail, where you’ll likely have the pristine beaches all to yourself.

Local History & Culture

Local History & Culture

The Eyre Peninsula has a rich maritime and agricultural story to tell. Don't miss the Silo Art Trail, where towering murals in towns like Kimba, Cowell, and Tumby Bay turn the grain harvest into a massive outdoor gallery. In Whyalla, you can step back in time at the Maritime Museum and even walk the decks of the HMAS Whyalla, the first ship ever built in the city’s historic shipyard.

Local Tastes (Food/Drink)

Local Tastes (Food/Drink)

You can’t visit the Eyre Peninsula without tasting the world-famous Coffin Bay oysters—shuck them fresh at a local farm or wade out into the water for a floating tasting tour. In Port Lincoln, the "Seafood Capital of Australia," seek out King George Whiting or bluefin tuna at the local fishmongers to cook up a gourmet feast back at your van.

Outdoor Adventure

Outdoor Adventure

For the ultimate adrenaline rush, Port Lincoln is the only place in Australia where you can go cage diving with Great White Sharks. If you prefer something a little gentler but no less magical, head to Whyalla between May and August to swim with the Giant Cuttlefish, or visit Baird Bay to splash around with playful Australian sea lions and dolphins in their natural habitat.

Camping Lifestyle

Camping Lifestyle

The Eyre Peninsula is a dream for the "van life" enthusiast, offering everything from high-end holiday parks to iconic off-grid spots. Wake up to the sound of koalas at Mikkira Station, or join the community of travellers at Perlubie Beach, where you can park your caravan right on the sand for a small donation. It’s all about the simple pleasures: a campfire under a million stars and a cold drink with your feet in the sand.

For most campervans, motorhomes, and RVs (under 4.5 tonnes GVM), you only need a standard car licence. If you're hiring a caravan, you'll also need a tow-capable vehicle and to check its towing capacity.
