    Desert Sky Tours Personalised Tours 2019 8 day Eyre Peninsula and Head of Bight Day 1 Your holiday commences with home pick up, following which we take Highway 1 along Spencer Gulf to Port Wakefield. After a morning tea break, we continue north through the towns of Lochiel, Red Hill and Port Germein, to Port Augusta, at the head of Spencer Gulf and in close proximity to The Flinders Ranges. Travelling down the western side of the Gulf, we pass through Whyalla, one of the largest regional centres in South Australia, and on to the small harbour side township of Cowell, which is recognised as having the oldest and one of the largest jade deposits in the world, with a variety of colours and patterns not found elsewhere. Oyster farming is a relatively new but thriving industry in this community and a large percentage of South Australia's oyster supply came from Cowell last year. We call in to the delightful coastal towns of Arno Bay and Port Neill before arriving in Tumby Bay. Overnight: Sea Breeze Hotel Tumby Bay Day 2 We leave on the Trinity Haven Scenic Drive which takes us past beautiful long white sandy beaches and rock headlands. This popular drive opens up a whole range of secluded sandy beaches, sheltered bays and interesting rock formations, including Second Creek- a tidal estuary into the mangrove eco system, nursery of the sea. Here there is an abundant and diverse range of bird life. Taking the White River Road with the rolling Koppio Hills in the distance brings us to the Lincoln Highway.
