Day 2 (B, L)

Depart Coober Pedy by light aircraft to enjoy scenic views of the rugged Outback landscape and Lake Eyre, Australia’s largest salt lake.

Stop at William Creek, South Australia’s smallest town (pop. 6).  Enjoy a stroll around town and lunch at the famed William Creek Hotel, an iconic Outback pub.

After lunch, fly South West to Ceduna, enjoying views of Australia’s largest cattle station (the same size as Belgium), and the coastal scenery of the West Coast of the Eyre Peninsula.

A town tour of Ceduna - the Oyster Capital of Australia - will include authentic Aboriginal art, windswept beaches, the Southern Ocean, and local yarns of West Coast life and history.
