Situated about an hour’s drive south of Adelaide, Fleurieu Peninsula
offers a wide variety of food, wine and arts experiences and is an ideal
locale for a broad range of outdoor activities. The area’s Mediterranean-style
climate provides an ideal habitat for wildlife and flora and its pristine
coastal environment is home to numerous native mammals, abundant bird species
and a plethora of sea-life such as dolphins, sea lions, seals and whales.
Boasting a number of excellent wineries of its own, Fleurieu Peninsula
adjoins the world renowned McLaren Vale wine region. The Peninsula also
provides a gateway to Kangaroo Island, a playground of natural wonders
and incomparable beauty.
