Discovery Parks - Whyalla Foreshore
Discovery Parks -- Whyalla (formerly Whyalla Foreshore Caravan Park) on the South Australian Eyre Peninsula is set on the Spencer Gulf foreshore. Midway between Adelaide and Streaky Bay, Whyalla is on the premier fishing route along the East Coast Eyre Peninsula, with Port Augusta an hour away and Port Lincoln just over 3 hours away. Beyond the coast, Whyalla is the gateway to the Outback within easy reach of Quorn and Hawker, with the major regional centre of Mount Gambier a 5 and a half hour drive away.
Now South Australia's third largest city, Whyalla was originally established as a port to ship iron ore extracted from the nearby Middleback Ranges. Boasting a rich mining and steel making history, a range of daily tours are available for the whole family including the OneSteel Steelworks Tour and the Whyalla Maritime Museum, which features the land-locked 'HMAS Whyalla' -- the first modern warship build in South Australia in 1941.
The region is widely regarded for its natural beauty and excellent fishing. The Whyalla Conservation Park with its famed Wild Dog Hill is a popular picnic and hiking spot, while the annual migration of the Giant Australian Cuttlefish remains a major draw card for avid divers.

The Whyalla jetty offers anglers a good chance at landing tommy ruff, garfish, squid, blue swimmer crabs and some species of whiting.

The manicured grass area boasts new playground equipment, seating, artworks and a renovated café and forms a seamless transition into the adjacent Ada Ryan gardens. The upgrade of the Whyalla foreshore has completed stage one and stage two is underway.
