South Australia is at once ancient – it has known human activity dating back at least 49,000 years (archaeological evidence places human occupation in Australia to possibly double that figure) – and completely modern.

Best of all, it’s a stunning place to photograph. Here are a few of our favourite South Australian regions.
The Fleurieu Peninsula: Just south of the CBD, with secluded beaches, rolling hills and colourful wineries.
The Coorong: A bird sanctuary, with plentiful fishing. A place like no other, the lake attracts birdlife from all over the world.

The Flinders Rangers: A magical place with ancient structures, a rich Indigenous heritage, wildflowers and wildlife.
The Yorke Peninsula: A little land finger of perfect paradise, known for its white sandy beaches, expansive national parks and high-quality seafood.
The Eyre Peninsula: Big and majestic landscape, with abundant natural charm, plentiful seafood and wildlife including sea lions and whales.
