Superlatives for South Australia

We moved a couple of days ago from Cairns to Adelaide, the capital of South Australia. We stayed there overnight and picked up a mobile home the next morning before heading off on a 7 hour drive to Coffin Bay at the bottom of the Eyre peninsula.

There is very little traffic, but sadly, there are a lot of dead kangaroos and one dead emu on the route. I learned the high risk time is early evening, so luckily, we arrived at 1830. The animals probably came out later because it was so incredibly hot 44.5C! Directly at the coast it's an amazing 14C cooler, so our aircon can keep the campervan at a comfortable temperature.

Yesterday we went out to explore the area and we saw a large number of kangaroos, and one emu with 5 little ones. Our 1st emu sighting.

The superlatives are reserved for Almonta Beach. According to beach fan Flo, this is probably the most stunning beach ever. Even better, we have it all to ourselves with the exception of a sole surfer. Oscar liked it so much that he wants to go again for his birthday tomorrow.もっと詳しく
