Eyre Peninsula
Empty beaches, seafood towns and easy coastal touring west of Adelaide.
1 caravan park
The Eyre Peninsula is SA's under-the-radar coastal touring region — Streaky Bay, Coffin Bay, Port Lincoln and the string of surf and fishing towns between them run on sealed roads with a relaxed, uncrowded caravan-park scene compared to the Flinders or Fleurieu. It's genuine seafood country (oysters at Coffin Bay, tuna at Port Lincoln) and a good easy-touring counterpoint to a bigger outback-track trip further north in the state.
Streaky Bay's foreshore tourist park is a good base for exploring the peninsula's western beaches and blowholes; most of the region's sights sit within an easy day's drive of each other on sealed roads, so it suits standard caravans without any rig-rating concerns.
It's a genuinely year-round destination, though summer brings the beach crowds and winter the best surf. Shoulder seasons (autumn, spring) are the sweet spot for mild weather and quieter parks.
