Coffin Bay & Pt Lincoln

I always try a Google search as my first point of call (if I'm not familiar with an area). You know best what your interests are. You won't have to do huge mileages - unless you want to.

Have a look at the following:

Nice drive through the Sleaford - Wanna dunes to Memory Cove (key access needed for the cove).

A great drive is The Whalers Way, can be done in a 2WD, was a little bit pricey IMO, but the views are great.

Sure, Monday 4WD North side of Coffin Bay National Park at least past Seven Mile Beach to Morgans Landing. Brochure & maps available Ph. 08-8688-3111 Port Lincoln Office, 75 Liverpool Street (they'll mail them to you) or www.environment.sa.gov.au/parks/
Take note of tide times for Seven Mile Beach, low tide only. The access track is sandy patches & limeston patches. It is hard to decide if to lower tyre pressures for sand or raise them for limestone. Or up & dow evety 200 meters. Your choice.
On wednesday or Tursday 4WD Lincoln National park Memory Cove Wilderness Area. This is the bottom 1/2 of the Park and you need a key from the Port Lincoln Tourist Bureau 66 Tasman Terrace Ph. 08-8683-3544 as access is limited to only a few vehicles per day (returnable deposit for key). Go to Memory Cove for picnic lunch - approx 50km (1.5 hrs) from Pt. Lincoln. Brochure with maps available.
The Seahorse Farm formerly at Pt. Lincoln has now moved to Port Adelaide.
If you love Oysters the place to get them fresh & cheap is at Turners Aquaculture at Cowell, about 100 meters off the Pt. Lincoln to Whyalla Highway. The oysters from the oyster farms at Coffin bay all go there too, i that makes sense, which it doesn't - not to me anyway. If you are a gourmet also ask Lincoln to mail you the Seafood and Aquaculture Trail brochure or www.tep.com.au
Enjoy!
P.S. Depending on when you go inquire at Whyalla about the cuttle fish spectacular (just North of Whyalla near Stoney Point - camping available but don't know the quality of the sites)
