'BEACHED' - Step Off The Deck And Onto The Sand
From the moment we walked in the door at “Beached” we knew we were going to have a great week. As soon as we opened the blinds, the most amazing view of the entire coastline of Wallaroo greeted us. The home was well stocked with cutlery, crockery, cooking utensils, and most importantly, plenty of wine glasses. It had everything we needed and the location was just stunning. The description is absolutely spot on. Step off of the timber deck straight onto the sand, which we did many times during our stay. If we weren’t out walking along the beautiful sandy beach, we were sitting on the deck, with a coffee, or, maybe a glass of wine or gin and tonic in hand, watching the ferry come and go, boats out fishing, and amazing, and at times, spectacular sunsets. There is a super little café a 5 minute walk from Beached which serves great coffee. Carole is a fantastic host and made sure our check in was smooth and easy, with comprehensive instructions. We will definitely be back.

Serenity On Gilmore
Renee’s Serenity at Gilmore at Wallaroo is amazing! One of the best airbnb holiday homes I’ve been to. It is at a fantastic location with access to the marina. We used the pontoon and took the boat out. It is super convenient. It is a very spacious and clean home. It has high quality amenities and you can tell Renee takes good care of the home. Amazing fast wifi too. Smart TVs with streaming service access. Super powerful BBQ and lots of bathrooms and toilets. Thank you so much!

Cornerstone Cottage - peaceful stay with spa bath.
We had an awesome weekend at Cornerstone Cottage. Full of character and really comfortable, you can tell a lot of thought has gone into making it a great spot to relax. The bed was super comfy and the corner spa was perfect after a day out exploring. Evenings were spent kicked back on the couch with a movie, and mornings started with coffee from the espresso machine before heading to the beach and local cafes. We scored great weather, but even if it hadn’t been so good, the cottage would still be perfect for a cosy weekend in. Even though it shares a block with the main house, it felt really private with its own entrance and outdoor area. We also said a quick hello to the friendly pup next door at the fence. Tim was a great host — we didn’t need to contact him during our stay, but the check-in instructions, guidebook and tips were super handy. He was also really easy to deal with when we booked and quick to respond.

Protea Cottage
We had a wonderful time at Protea Cottage, thanks to Amber's impeccable taste in furnishings, decor and cleanliness. Amber is obviously very detailed and has thought of everything a guest might need. We were very impressed and we should know as we are also Super Hosts. Would highly recommend a stay. Very comfortable. Lois & Kevin.

Pepper Tree Villa
Amanda & Taguen thought of everything to ensure we had an amazing stay. Complimentary wine & Easter eggs were a great personal touch. Phone chargers + bathrobes in both bedrooms - how good is that! Even our dogs were thought of - so lovely! Well equipped kitchen & bathroom & amazingly comfortable beds. Beautiful & serene outdoor area Very clean. We had the best time. Would highly recommend!

Amazing 3br space right on the water. Will definitely stay again.

Your guide to Wallaroo
All about Wallaroo
It’s hard not to fall in love with the boot-shaped Yorke Peninsula, with its sleepy seaside villages and legendary surf breaks overlooking the marine wonderland of the Spencer Gulf on one side and Gulf St Vincent on the other. This part of South Australia became famous in the 1860s, when Cornish miners arrived to seek their fortunes from copper. Busy port Wallaroo was at the heart of this mineral boom, and its historic buildings recall those days in vivid detail. The town still draws historians to the Copper Triangle, which includes neighboring Moonta and Kadina, but just as many visitors arrive for the sun, sand, and seafood, abundant in the pristine waters off the coast. Office Beach comes with shaded areas and cafes, not to mention some of the best sunsets on the continent.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Wallaroo
Summers (December through February) can get steamy in this part of South Australia, with daily high temperatures between 80 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit; during winter (June through August) they fall to around 60 degrees. At this time of year, the water is actually warmer than the air; you can dive into 66-degree seas that heat to 75 during the summer months. Winter is also wet, with the year’s highest rainfalls and levels of humidity. In spring (September through November) and fall (March through May), look forward to glorious daytime highs between 65 and 80 degrees, with seas between 68 and 73.
Top things to do in Wallaroo
Coastal Way Road Trip
Explore the 435 miles of Yorke Peninsula’s coastline on this epic road trip. Wallaroo is one of 17 recommended destinations, attractions, and activities along the route; others include stopping in Stansbury for the town’s famed oysters, tackling the waves at Daly Head National Surfing Reserve, hiking sandy tracks at Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park, or sipping shiraz in the small town of South Kilkerran.
Wallaroo Jetty
At 2,850 feet, the Wallaroo Jetty is one of the longest in the state, its pylons sinking into water up to 32 feet deep. Anglers come here to catch snapper, squid, flathead, and salmon, while scuba divers can be spotted underneath the pier, taking in the rich marine world from below the sea’s surface.
Wallaroo Heritage and Nautical Museum
Take a tour of Wallaroo’s copper smelting era (1861-1923) at this museum, set in a handsome limestone building almost as old as the town itself. The 1865 former post office is just one of the stops on the self-guided Wallaroo Historical Town Walk. In addition to housing historical artefacts, the gallery is the resting place for a curious marine creature: George the Giant Squid, found in the late 1970s in the stomach of a whale and measuring 28 feet in length with tentacles outstretched.
