G'day all,
The wife and I are considering taking the caravan over to the
Head of the Bight to see the whales, and was wondering if we could get some current or recent prices for DIESEL at the following
places:
Pt
Augusta,
Kimba,
Ceduna,
Penong,
Yalata roadhouse and
Nullarbor roadhouse.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
cheers,
glids

If you're going then the fuel cost is not a factor but more an excuse not to, as it's not that far. Just put an extra $70 in your wallet and that will cover the return trip fuel price fluctuations and probably a couple of pies too!
So the question boils down to "can you afford $70 extra to see the whales" ? - Of course you can - have a good trip!
Cheers Nigel

Ceduna (Shell or BP),
Penong (
Caltex) and
Nundroo (?
United) are all about the same price and on current prices I'd expect them to be about $1.52 a litre.
Nullabor is one of the most expensive stops for diesel and is usually about 30-40 cents per litre dearer than the others. I like to get fuel at
Penong - it is a truck stop that is popular with the truckies, so you'll always get fresh diesel there.
