Port Lincoln is a major tuna fishing area, situated
on the southern tip of the Eyre
Peninsula. It is backed by the remarkable Lincoln National
Park, which offers fantastic coastal landscape and some good surfing
beaches. Just south of Port Lincoln, Cape Carnot has magnificent
scenery, and nearby Sleaford’s Bay offers some fantastic beaches.
For those of you who like furry and fluffy creatures
buy a permit and visit the Mikkira Koala Sanctuary. Those of you
who aren’t afraid of a few sharp teeth hop aboard one of the cruises
out to Dangerous Reef, which is a very popular breeding ground
for Great White Sharks. You can also go cage diving if you are
brave enough along with other activities.
Around the town there are several historic buildings
that you can visit, including Mill Cottage, the Old Mill and Port
Lincoln Hotel. Being a major tuna town there is also a tuna festival
called Tunarama held in January every year.
There are plenty of accommodation places around the city including hostels and apartments, as well as a number of restaurants and other eating
areas.
