If you’re after a real escape from the city, this is the kind of place you’ll want to bookmark! Coorong Life offers three stay lengths to suit your mood – whether you just need a quick weekend reset or a whole week to truly slow down. Their two kip pods are cozy, comfortable, and perfectly placed for soaking in the stillness of the area. At $180 a night, the Coorong is one of the best spots in SA for birdwatching, so bring binoculars if that’s your thing. It truly blows me away each time I'm at the Coorong - the amount of birds is insane!

For some quiet, some peaceful, and relaxing moments, this is the sort of place you'll want. It's where you can just sit with a coffee, watch the changing light over the water, and feel the world slow right down.
