We’ve just returned home from a weekend away in the small coastal town of ‘Edithburgh’ on South Australia’s ‘York Peninsula’ and we enjoyed every moment there.

Edithburgh is one of my ‘happy places’. In once place you can find a slow paced idyllic country town, one the best jetties for benthic marine life in Australia and a gateway to some of South Australia’s most incredible off-shore diving.

There is some big water out from here when the seas are rough but those welcoming outstretched arms of stone will be there waiting when back from a day out on or under the water.

Today we dived two of my all time favourite South Australian locations. Worth every inch of the twenty five nautical mile round trip.

Images and locations to follow in the coming days.
