Easter is road-tripping time!

Easter always provides the perfect opportunity to hit the open road, leave the hustle and bustle of city life behind, and explore Australia.

 

And with Easter this year falling so close to the school holidays, there are plenty of chances to pack the kids in the car and head off on a trip to make a lifelong memory.

 

It always blows our minds how many South Aussies and Victorians have never been to the Coonawarra for a weekend getaway or an extended stay. So, if you are still yet to book a trip away for this Easter, why not head toward our beautiful patch of the world and give it a go.

 

Here are some exciting things happening in our region this April.

 

Glamp if you dare

 

There are some amazing opportunities to dabble your toe in the wonderful world of camping, whilst not having to do so without all the amenities your heart desires. We have options popping up to do just that all over the South East.  

 

Places such Bellweather Wines in the heart of the Coonawarra offer glamping accommodation, Sea Vu Caravan Park in the gorgeous seaside town of Robe, and also companies that offer a pop-up and pitch like Luxe Glamping in Mount Gambier.

 

Eat, drink and be merry!

 

Our South East region holds its own when it comes to incredible places to visit and options to explore for the food and beverage lovers at heart.

 

There are brewery options such as Robe Town Brewery, wine bars and festivals in Mount Gambier, and wine regions like the Coonawarra – hint, hint, nudge, nudge, along with other amazing producers popping up all around the place.

 

And this Easter Friday we will have food, wines, and fun times at our place in the Coonawarra.

 

It’s blue, it’s big, and it’s worth a trip

 

We are talking about the blue lake. If you have never seen this natural marvel it’s a must-visit for the family travellers and Instagrammers at heart. It's big, beautiful and oh so blue, so be sure to bring your camera.

 

Get me to the beach

 

We have some of the most amazing beaches to explore, go 4x4 driving on, and to just relax such as Beachport, Robe, and Kingston, and the beauty is they are all close to the Coonawarra too.

 

This is just a little taste to whet your appetite, but our region has so many incredible things to do and places to see, and should definitely be on the list of places to visit this Easter.
