Australia's Must Do Road Trip | Eyre Peninsula, South Australia

Check out our full road trip itinerary here: bit.ly/FlyingTheNestItinerary
Whenever we come home to Australia we always try to get out and see a new part of our beautiful backyard, this time we are exploring South Australia with a road trip along the Eyre Peninsula before heading home for Christmas.
After flying into Port Lincoln on the tiniest plane, we checked into our hotel and were already up for an adventure. We jumped in the car and made our way up to Coffin Bay to do one of the most unique oyster tours, literally sea to table as we sat in the bay.
That night we had the tastiest meal at Line and Label, including having one of the new top 20 dishes in the world.
The next morning we got up nice and early to go and swim with sea lions and dolphins and wow - cannot recommend this enough!
On the way back to Port Lincoln, we hit up some beautiful spots including Talia Caves, Coffin Bay National Park and even swam in some natural rock pools alongside the ocean (wow is all we can say!)
Thanks to Tourism South Australia for making this happen - check out all the spots and tours we went on below or see the full itinerary at the top!

You both are literally setting the bar when it comes to videography. The quality and content of each episode feels more like a professionally made documentary. Simply outstanding! By far the best youtubers I follow and I include the big guns like Casey Neistat in that compliment! Thank you for making such incredibly consistent and amazing content 😍

[@flyingthenest]

Oh wow thank you for such an amazing compliment! You are way too kind :)

[@paintandpinotinperth7868]

Flying The Nest You are more than welcome, every word is meant 😉👍🏼🇦🇺

[@racheltracker9859]

Paint and Pinot in Perth I agree, these guys are incredible bloggers, so entertaining and informative ❤️

[@jazreynolds7113]

I don’t know how they find the time to edit with such consideration whilst traveling!? Awesome job these two do!

[@lilcrouton8208]

These two birds do a really great job!!!👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩👍👌

[@crazyadelaideeats]

That oyster tour is great fun. If you ever get back, it may be pricey but you just have to go cage diving with Great Whites. Mind blowing.

[@kelleynrothaermel2311]

Yeah! Steve dressed up! My husband says, Jess is so pretty, but her husband steve looks like a kid, but now that you are dressed up you look like a grown up. The food looks so good.

[@zuemh702]

My jaw literally dropped the entire time I watched this video! South Australia looks amazing! ❤️

[@flyingthenest]

We want to go back and check out more regions!! So amazing!

[@noname-mq6vw]

You poor thing, how is your jaw?

[@wendysmith6184]

when we caravaned to south Australia i kinda thought why , but when you get there especially on the coast it is just amazing and probably one of the most under rated places in australia, so worth a road trip. thankyou for doing such a great job of showing off not only the places you go but your own back door 💖💖💖

[@JackandGabExplore]

Love it! Caravanning to South Australia sounds incredible!!!

[@BusyBeeMaree]

Loved the rock pool and cave. One day I hope to visit Australia.

[@wildchook745]

I am a proud South Aussie. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip to the Peninsula with you guys. It sure is a hidden gem. Thanks for sharing :)

[@bobguenther6658]

So glad you’re doing some videos from Australia! Would love to visit!

[@benec5816]

Best advertisement for SA have seen for years and gee wiz the crowds are just overpowering ha ha love your camera work and editing we went through there in 88 and 91 to and from Perth and those poor fields still as by as a bone not many places you could see and do all that in a day stay safe hope you had a great Christmas see ya

[@MrClemmo13]

Wow natural oysters! Yum! Definitely my favourite!😋

[@mansoureh]

This is my dream to go to Australia for a month or two and go around by car and make a documentary

[@alandprecilla549]

Australia is an amazing place. We live here in queensland. So many places to visit and so diverse

[@flyingthenest]

Yes we would love to explore more maybe in the future when we have kids :)

[@mansoureh]

@@flyingthenest looks like a great plan 🤗🤗

[@KrystalKstar]

Travel With Mansoureh I’d love to go to Australia too. Definetly need a month at least to explore.

[@lapislazuli1533]

Come on over! Haha

[@heatabayko]

This looks like the perfect relaxing vacation but still lots to do without being too hectic. Wow!! On my bucket list for sure!!

[@intallpines]

You guys are the sweetest and cutest couple. Love your happy adventurous spirits! Great job with the oysters Stephen.

[@flyingthenest]

Awww you are way too kind!!

[@georgie8961]

What an awesome time you guys had! So glad you could get to Adelaide and South Australia... thank you for coming and sharing your experiences!

[@mansoureh]

You swam with Dolphins and seals ??? Awesome. It is a dream comes true 🤗🤗🤗

[@flyingthenest]

Such an unreal experience!!!

[@foxyrhi7398]

And noone told them thats where the sharks hang out

[@superjaykramer]

No more dolphins left unfortunately!! Since the government's been polluting the waters and the CO2 levels are too high. The dolphins in the video are 1000 km away, they are not telling you that.

[@TK_Orange]

superjaykramer haha thats not true

[@joemulgrew]

@@TK_Orange Why not swimming with the Great White sharks

[@maomama5980]

The seal is so cute and gracious in the sea🐬

[@RayRafaaz]

The dolphins and the seals are so precious!! Aww my heart literally burst watching that cute seal demmit gotta visit SA again then. And Melbourne again....and Tazzy too!!!

[@alexisd8190]

I would love to swim with seals and dolphins. I love animals so much!

[@JeanGenie92]

Gorgeous 😍 South Australia has always seemed to have the best coastline!

[@flyingthenest]

I totally agree with this!

[@scap8104]

Have you been to Esperance WA and remote beaches that you can you can only access with a 4WD in the Kimberley ? You don't see these in SA. SA is very beautiful and definitely has to be seen, but I don't agree in this comment.WA has the most beautiful beaches in Australia if you go remote.

[@felicityosullivan1200]

Have done road trips in WA and Queensland before and you have certainly raised my interest in South Australia for next time we are across. You are right about discovering gems along the way. Festive greetings to you both and keep travelling !

[@ahhitskatie9094]

You two should create a soundtrack or playlist for your travels. The music you choose for your videos is always so good!

[@richardsundown2175]

You two do the most awesome adventures keeping it fresh and lively. Keep em coming.

[@JackandGabExplore]

So gorgeous there! Brb booking a flight to Australia ASAP lol

[@EscapesEtc]

So awesome to see South Australia getting some love! I started my time in Aus there and it’s so unbelievably overlooked! You guys should check out the Limestone Coast as well, it’s so beautiful.

[@exploreaustralia6577]

Always enjoy watching your vids.

[@del7920]

Guys your videos are so awesome, I love them more than even Fun For Louis's travel videos.

Flying The Nest Australia is such a majestic and beautiful country but I heard from many Asian and Indian immigrants that there are not a lot of economic opportunities in this country. I also heard that Australians can be very racist and that racism is getting out of hand there.
