The Limestone Coast region spans from the costal
town of Port MacDonnell in the South to Tailem
Bend in the North, following the Victoria border
on the East side and the coastline on the West.

South Australia's South East region was once
covered by the waters of the Southern Ocean. Over
millions of years tonne's of marine sediments
were deposited, the sea receded and the Limestone
Coast Region was formed.

will think of the Coonawarra Wine region, the
coastal town of Robe, the World Heritage Listed
Naracoorte Caves and the Blue Lake. But a region
is always much more than its major tourist
attractions. Beyond the crowds and behind the
obvious are those little known places which add
colour, deeper understanding and appreciation.
