The SINGAPOREAN’S GUIDE to
SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Seafood Frontier Drive
The world truly is your oyster with the freedom to dive into (or drive to) some of the freshest seafood in South Australia
Click each pit stop to read more
These protected waters are perfect for those interested in some snorkel or dive action. Besides dolphins that frequent the local marina, one can also take a dip with Australian Giant Cuttlefish between May and August and find out why they’re known as the chameleons of the sea. Then hunt down Sempre Italian Market and Coffee Shop for a simple lunch of homemade pasta and a shot of real Italian espresso before hitting the road again.
B As fresh as seafood gets
Enjoy prawning in Punggol but want to take it a step further? Step aboard The Cathy Jan and see how many King George Whiting and snapper you can snag. Then head to the barbecue pits and picnic area on Tumby Terrace to cook your own catch. Unlike the barbecue pits on East Coast Beach, these are free for public use. The white sand and calm waters of Tumby Bay also allow for a relaxing swim and activities like water-skiing.
C
Wine and dine and
Great White Sharks
You’ll want to stop at this coastal location for its wineries and numerous restaurants dishing out fresh seafood. You can also join a tour if you fancy a swim with some sea lions or dolphins or, for something a little more extreme, go cage diving with Great White Sharks. If you’re looking for a place to spend the night, check into one of Port Lincoln Hotel’s spacious rooms that overlook the beautiful Boston Bay and Port Lincoln city centre.
D Hunting the Sea
Here’s a safari you could sink your teeth into – from October to May, sign up for a Hunting and Gathering Seafood Safari and head to local fishing hotspots to get your own fresh daily catch from oysters to cockles and abalone. Once you’re done with a hard day out on the water, a personal chef will whip up dinner so you can just kick back and feast on your spoils.

E Live oysters, baby!
You’ve read about how Coffin Bay Oysters are famous for their exceptional taste and size. They are a delicacy not to be missed. There are even tours that allow you to try them freshly harvested from the sea. Even better, this gastronomic experience is just a 30-minute drive from Port Lincoln. Sweet!
F Salmon by the surf
Take a quick stopover along the highway and sink your hooks into some fishing at one of the best and most consistent salmon fishing beaches in Australia.
G
Stay calm and eat
Blue Swimmer Crabs
Fishing options are abundant along Streaky Bay whether by the coast, the rocks or on a vessel. Or just kick back and have a drink with snapper, King George Whiting and Blue Swimmer Crab delivered to your table with waterfront dining at Mocean Café.
