Whale-watching on the Fleurieu Peninsula

Eco-friendly activity

Port Elliot beach, South Australian Tourism Commission

Between May and October, southern right whales often cruise right next to the shore of the Fleurieu Peninsula. Popular viewing spots include Port Elliot, Goolwa, Middleton and Victor Harbor, but your best starting point is the South Australia Whale Centre in Victor Harbor. The centre advises on where the latest and best whale sightings have been, and has two floors of exhibits on whales and sharks, including a complete skull of a southern right whale.
