10-Day Camino de Santiago in Luxury
It was an exhiliarating and awesome experience that exceeded all my expectations!
Welcome to the home of Oysterfest! Your private guide will be waiting for you at Ceduna Airport to pick you up. After a morning coffee to get to know each other, you'll head to the local Aboriginal Art gallery where you'll have the chance to meet with local artists and learn about their stories and artwork. After lunch, you'll continue your journey up the coast to visit Penong Windmills and the stunning pink Lake MacDonnell, with the possibility of spotting wombats along the way. We'll then head back to Ceduna to check into the Ceduna Foreshore Hotel, where you can freshen up and enjoy a cold beverage before dinner. Get ready for an unforgettable experience!
Get ready to depart at 8:00 am after enjoying a continental breakfast. You'll head to Fowlers Bay for a breathtaking oceanic morning cruise. With up to 80 whales and other marine life like dolphins, sea lions, penguins, and albatross, this is one of the best places to see Southern Right and Humpback Whales during their migration. You can also listen to the sounds of the Humpbacks through the boat's speakers by lowering a hydrophone into the depths. After lunch, we'll explore this secluded region before returning to Ceduna.
The group leaves Ceduna and travels 450km to Port Lincoln, following the path of Edward John Eyre and visiting magnificent coastal towns and attractions along the way. You’ll stop at Point Labatt to view the Australian Sea-lion, the only place on the mainland where the pups can be seen learning to swim, play, and rest on the beach. Afterward, you head to Murphy's Haystacks, an outcrop of unique pink granite boulders, and relax for lunch on the coast. You will also stop at Talia Caves and the town of Elliston for spectacular coastal views before reaching Cummings Monument, which offers uninterrupted views of the rugged cliff tops of the Great Australian Bight. You then transfer to Port Lincoln, showcasing the small city's highlights en-route to your accommodation.
The group will visit Flinders Ports Wharf, South Australia's primary grain exporting plant. The harbor can load grain carriers thanks to its natural deep-water location. Around AUD$2.2 billion worth of cargo, mainly grain commodities (such as wheat, canola, barley, peas, and beans) and fresh seafood, move through the wharf each season. Next, you’ll head to the Marina Wharf, where you'll see Port Lincoln's diverse fishing fleet and smaller trailer boats. You’ll also visit the Tacoma, the first purpose-built purse seine fishing boat, which had a significant impact on pelagic fishing in Australia. Lunch at the Fresh Fish Place, where you can choose your own fresh fish or shellfish from the menu, is followed by a visit to the Port Lincoln National Park, where you can enjoy beautiful beaches and stunning views. Then, you’ll visit a private nature reserve where you can see wild Koalas and kangaroos, wander through the restored original homestead, and observe 160 native bird species. End the day with a platter and local wine surrounded by wildlife and nature, before transferring you to the Port Lincoln Hotel.
The tour concludes after the breakfast at hotel. You will be transferred to the airport for your flight.
