Outback to the Sea

Port Augusta a holiday destination not just a refill station.........

For too long Port Augusta has not understood its real place in the Outback. It has overlooked it's natural assests and let it self be defined by people passing through.

Port Augusta has traditionally been the 'refuel' station for both car and body and once this has been achieved the people pass on through.

It is almost as if Port Augusta was the ugly ducking of cities, it had a use but no-one wanted to admire it. Now the ugly ducking is turning into a swan!

Port Augusta is now a holiday destination! with real appeal. From water sports to indigenous culture. From sandy beaches to sandy desert and from City Centre to Outback Towns you will find it all within a short drive from Port.

There is something here for everyone and Port Augusta is only just beginning to develop it's assets, so it is only going to get better.

Our Indigenous population is just begining to blossom into the tourism market. They are delighting us with art, craft and the sharing of their cultural legacy. They are sharing with us their knowledge and appreciation for bush, its foods, medicines and more...

Come for a walk along the fore-shore and discover the kids playground, clean town beach, water scenery and more. Just a short stroll from the water you will find Commercial Street with good shopping and nice Cafe's. Go to Wadlata and book a cruise or hire a boat and go fishing.... it's up to you how much you'll do on your holiday here.

Quorn - too much to see when you are just passing through! Just a 40 km drive from Port Augusta!

Quorn is often just a "pit-stop" for those going to the 'Flinders Ranges'. But Quorn is the Flinders Ranges just as much as Wilpena Pound. Quorn has some great little secrets and you need more than a day to appreciate them all.
