Carrickalinga

(Kaurna name: Karragadlangga – red gum firewood place) 

79 kilometres from Adelaide 

With its white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, and rock pools, Carrickalinga is a popular holiday retreat for tourists far and wide.  

Offering postcard views over Roma Mitchell Bay and Yankalilla Bay, one of the best ways to appreciate the beauty of this coastal village is to take the shared walking and bike trail to Normanville. Approach from the north via Myponga Reservoir to enjoy the dramatic coastal views, and be sure to stop at the lookout on Forktree Road.

Just outside the township itself, craft beer enthusiasts will be rapt with Forktree Brewing. With the seascape on one side of the property, and rolling hills on the other, this may be the best spot to enjoy an ice-cold beverage this summer.
