Beyond the city of Adelaide, South Australia is largely a dry, barren and starkly beautiful state - it’s the driest state in Australia and the stunning landscapes reflect this. Head north in to the Flinders Ranges to experience the Outback at first hand, with mile after mile of wilderness and dramatic landscapes at every turn - this is classic road-trip country, but it’s not for the faint-hearted.
To the south, the SA coastline is desolate and dramatic as you head towards the Victoria border and the Great Ocean Road, while offshore Kangaroo Island is a great destination for wildlife and wilderness, with a myriad of water- and land-based creatures from dolphins to echidnas (and kangaroos, of course!) making it home.
