Yorke Peninsula Holiday & Travel Information
South Australia

The Yorke Peninsula, one of South Australia’s top fishing destinations is flanked by the calm waters of the Gulf St Vincent on one side and by Spencer Gulf on the other. The area was put on the map in the late 1850’s with the discovery of rich copper-ore deposits, many of the now serene resort towns along the coast were once busy ports.

Today the area is a popular beachside holiday destination. The surrounding waters offer excellent fishing, diving and surfing, bushwalking and whale-watching.

The Yorke Peninsula is only a couple of hours drive from Adelaide and is nestled between Port Broughton and Gulf St Vincent.

This secluded and peaceful peninsula is dotted with ports, the southern end becoming more rugged and isolated where Innes National Park combines spectacular scenery with undulating scrubland.
