The Tumby Bay District, incorporating Tumby Bay, Port Neill, Ungarra and Lipson townships and the surrounding area is a breathtaking part of the Eyre Peninsula. Our temperate climate, peaceful lifestyle and friendly locals will ensure that you and your family relax and unwind during your stay.

Pristine white sandy beaches, unspoilt coastlines, crystal clear blue waters and scenic sheltered bays offer year round fishing, boating, sailing and sightseeing. Our coast is perfect for swimming, diving and all aquatics, with endless water fun and idyllic summer days for everyone. Relax with an ice cream on the grassy foreshore whilst the kids enjoy the playground, jumping platform and pontoon or take your jetski out and have some fun in the water yourself.

As a renowned fishing destination, you can look forward to reeling in a great catch by jetty, boat, charter, beach or rock fishing, or you can venture out to the famous Sir Joseph Banks Group of Islands for one of the most memorable fishing trips you'll ever have.

Away from the beach, there are many things to keep you occupied: walking trails and boardwalks, bird watching, lookouts, beautiful parks and gardens, picnic and barbeque areas, museums, art and craft galleries, tennis, cycling, lawn bowls, cricket, football and more.

Scenic half and full day drives into the heart of the district feature flora and fauna with colours as varied as the seasons. Green in winter, gold in summer and a multicoloured display of wildflowers in spring. The rolling Koppio Hills with magnificent gum trees and prolific birdlife are amazing.

Whatever you're looking for, if it's holiday relaxation you have in mind, you're sure to find it in Tumby Bay. Contact us now to find out about availability of our accommodation.
