Day 1: You will think you have stepped back in time when you arrive at the tiny well serviced Port Lincoln Airport, and be met by your friendly and very relaxed local guide. Phil Porter is a local from way back and you will soon realise you are in very capable and knowledgable hands. On your drive in from the airport we stop at the First Landing Site where in 1839 the first settlers arrived lead by Captain William Field Porter. You will hear of the hardships and triumphs of the pioneers of this now thriving township and gain an understanding into the background which has lead Port Lincoln to hold the title for being the town with the most millionaires per capita within Australia. After settling into your superior room at the multi award winning Port Lincoln Hotel on the foreshore of stunning Boston Bay, enjoy some free time to explore or have a splash in the crystal clear seas or the hotel's private pool. Dinner with your tour guide at the hotel's Sarin Restaurant will be a chance to experience the superb freshness of the sea and prized local farming lands to savour the tastes of our local pride. |

Dine in our beach and bush setting on fresh local delicacies with only the sound of birds and rolling waves as your backdrop. Then prepare to be charmed by Wander the joey who will ride with you on your 4WD adventure as you explore the serenity and diversity of the Peninsula wilderness. As the perfect finale to your day, enjoy the taste of freshness straight from the sea for a casual evening dine and wine experience with our master chef of seafood from the famous Oysterbeds Restaurant. |

Kangaroos bounding across the tracks & Emus wandering with their young are frequent sights as well as an abundance of Sea Eagles including the rare Osprey and other native birds. |
