South Australia has made a name for itself as a relaxed region full of wine, wildlife and natural wonder. Here, lakes shimmer pink, gardens grow underground and you can dive into a 60-metre deep crater, in the middle of a paddock. 

Taste your way through world-famous wine regions only minutes away from Adelaide, soak up the sun at pristine, picture-perfect beaches, swim with sea lions and dolphins, cage dive with great white sharks and get up close with wild koalas and kangaroos. 

Swap the crowds for pristine landscapes, rich wildlife and great seafood. Get back to nature with a hike, enjoy oysters straight from the sea or lose yourself in historic towns and laneways. Whatever you’re looking for, you’ll find it all and then some.
