This NP has a lot of variety & heaps to offer from walking trails to spectacular scenery to a multitude of wildlife encounters. You have Cape Borda Lighthouse on the NW Coast, Cape du Couedic Lighthouse on the SW Coast, the Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch, Rocky River, Snake Lagoon & many wilderness trails to explore. Sadly our visit was cut short by extreme weather conditions which led to the NP being closed for safety sake.

We had a great visit to the cellar door and winery tour with Jonathan. He was fantastic- knowledgeable and informative - he spent more than 2 hours with the 4 of us. Taking us through the historic property dating back to the early 1800s and vineyard with some of the regions oldest vines. We also enjoyed the wine tasting great wines in the cellar and again Jonathan provided interesting commentary and insights to the wines. We all recommend a visit to Langmeil. Well done Langmeil and thanks Jonathan.

absolutley beautiful natural wonder, full of amazing stinky local wildlife. the sea was so rough it was a spectacular site. if driving back in the dark or near dusk be aware of the abundance of nocturnal life that will be darting about the road. best to go in the day time unless you want a very slow and sometimes stressful drive home avoiding all the little critters.

Amazing place to stay, pretty much everyone has a sea view and the sites are large, we were lucky enough to be on the edge right on the sea side. It is just out of Streaky Bay but not too far, walk down to the beach and across to the island. We were also offered binoculars when we went out to see the sea lions. Place is spotless, inside amenities block are ensuites plus on their own toilets. Very friendly staff and will definately visit again.

If you work your way down North Terrace, east you will come to the Adelaide Botanic Gardens. this is a quiet and beautiful oasis in the city and borders on botanic Park and the Zoo. It makes for a great day out for families all within about a 5 minute walk of the city center. It houses an original Victorian glass house with a famous Amazon lily, big lawned areas, water lily ponds and lovely mature trees dating from the 1850's ( Adelaide was settled by private charter in 1836). The botanic gardens then exit onto botanic park at the northern boundary. Botanic park is a large grassed park with lovely big shade trees and is popular with locals for picnics. A short walk across the park and you can visit the very good Adelaide Zoo to see lots of native animals as well as all the usual suspect. A great day for a family if visiting Adelaide.

We visited to specifically purchase Alicante Bouche. However, after sampling a few of the other wines on offer we purchased other varieties too. The wines are delicious and the staff provided us with some great insights into their wine making processes. The cellar door is in a beautiful heritage building which adds to the whole experience Would definitely recommend that you visit.

Take a short stroll or horse tram ride over the wooden causeway that connects the mainland at Victor Harbor to Granite Island Recreation Park. Enjoy the coastal scenery and discover the island's interesting history along the Kaiki Walk or go fishing from the jetty, or causeway (no fishing from breakwater). You may even spot a southern right whale between June and October.

Granite Island was a highlight to visit in Victor Harbour. There is a designated walking trail, great views, sculptures and it is an easy walk, about 40 minutes or longer if you capture everything and take your time. Just do it it is so worth it.

10. d'Arenberg
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 765 reviews
The idea to build the d'Arenberg Cube came to Chief Winemaker Chester Osborn in 2003. Inspired by the complexities and puzzles of winemaking, Chester created the idea of a cube-shaped building. Each of the five levels have been carefully designed to entice and excite the senses, including features such as a wine inhalation room, a virtual fermenter, a 360degree video room, and many other tactile experiences. Visitors are encouraged to explore the Alternate Realities Museum, located on the ground floor, and view the many art installations on display. The tasting room is located on the top floor, and is open 7 days a week 10am - 5pm.

We were a little concerned that this place had been too hyped up and overrated but it was actually an amazing experience even for me who doesn't actually enjoy wine all that much. The cube is impressive and it's worth just going to get a photo. But I can also highly recommend the tastings on the top floor. Our wine guy James was super friendly, really attentive and engaging, and made it feel like quiet a personal experience even when there were so many people around in the tasting room. I recommend getting there first thing in the morning otherwise it gets super busy. When we left there were people having to line up to get in. And I wouldn't bother with the gallery. Just pay the $15 for the rest of the experience and it should be a pretty enjoyable time!
