Beautiful views of rugged cliffs and raging seas. Rough sandy tracks manageable in standard vehicle with decent clearance.

We got the key from the Port Lincoln information Center. It costs $30 for the key plus a $20 refundable deposit. It's about 45 km from port Lincoln to whalers way. You get a guide with the key and use that to work your way around the attractions. The roads are a bit rough in places but possible in a two wheel drive. The scenery is awesome and you will need most of the day and some good walking shoes to see it all. Some of the barriers are rusty and falling apart so take care. The highlight for me was watching the seals at Cape Wiles.

We came here in a cloudy day. Not worth the $40 permission. The scenery is just okay. Not better than the national park.We didn't see any fur seal. It's normal as they are too far away and just looks like rocks, told by a visitor center staff. And no telescope here (not like another fur seals look out we've been to).All the roads are unsealed. We've known that before we came. But it still flat one of our tires when we traveled 3/4 of the way.

I highly recommend visiting this very beautiful place. It's family owned so you need to buy a ticket in advance ($40 per vehicle). Beautiful scenery is better than Lincoln national Park. Keep in mind all the roads are gravel.

This is a private own property located 30 minutes from the port Lincoln town. They charge $31per vehicle to enter the property and you could view the stunning south Australian coast from multiple points.Both 2WD and 4WD could access the property (not sure of the conditions when rains)A must visit when in port Lincoln!

Views are good. However have to pay $40 to get into this area, which would be fine if people could SAFELY get to the 'swimming hole'. The kids were excited to go until we discovered the fishing hole is a small step down towards a cliff then a tiny track to get to a ladder that moves that is attached by a chain.. while we were there several people made remarks on how they were there for the swimming hole (it is advertised everywhere) but couldn't get down. Highly unsafe. Huge rip-off seeing you can't do what you are there to do as we can see the views they offer everywhere surrounding this area but everyone was looking forward to the swimming hole. It doesn't state anywhere when looking at brochures, pictures etc there is such a risky climb down and then up again

Absolutely unbelievable scenery. You need to purchase a pass at the Port Lincoln Visitor Centre prior to your visit which will cost you $40. You can either get a Key which must be returned or a gate code to access a key box behind the gate post if you are not heading back to Port Lincoln. You get a map - which is not great, and some of the signs are a bit weather beaten. It is still fairly easy to navigate if you follow the road and visit each attraction as you go. It is basically one road in and out.This trek requires some walking and requires a 4WD on some of the turnoffs. The scenery is absolutely worth the trek.We spent 8 hours. Make sure you take water, sunscreen and deet insect repellent to get the best out of your day.Pros: You can follow a loop and see most of the attractions in one day. Spectacular scenery.Cons: The signs and the map are not great. Do not expect to see the seals without binoculars as they are on rocks in the middle of very rough waters. Some of the paths are very rough and no warning signs or barriers to keep people out of some very dangerous areas.***USE YOUR COMMON SENSE - LIMESTONE CLIFFS ARE NOT STABLE***

Beautiful place, great look outs. There is a lack of signage and bins leading to litter around the area. Some of the designated places are a bit average (the sinkhole)
