dont know about fishing, never done it, but hear most jetties are ok to fish off.
Also plenty of dolphin tours to grab at the port.
Cleland is nice, feeding the kangas, emus etc, and there is a fee to cuddle the koalas.

Hope you guys have a great stay......

Hi Jane which part of Wirral were you from?

Never been on one of the boats, but the water up near Berri, Loxton, Waikeree area stays at a permanent level thanks to the locks. It's a 3 hour drive but you get an Oz feel for vastness once you drop down off the ranges. There are various ways to get to that area, and i never knew till last month that they have the biggest wine place in the southern hemisphere round there, but you could always fit in a wine tasting session at the Barossa on the way through.

For Koalas i would suggest Urumbirra wild life park Nr Victor harbour.;)

Defintely cudlee creek (Gorge wildlife centre) for Koalas. Not far from there is the largest rocking horse. Warrawong wildlife centre is also lovely, nice wander around the woods, we saw loads of wildlife and some Platipus in the lake. Also the emus come to say hi when you are having your lunch, its also free to get in to.

Home of the Platypus in Adelaide South Australia | Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary

HTH and hope you enjoy your trip

Hi Clare, we have to validate by May so did hope to move by then but have lost property sale and other things went wrong so are validating next week then aiming for July for the big move. A bit of a pain to have to do it that way with all the extra expense but feel we had to to make sure we had the validation in place incase anything else crops up!!
When do you hope to move?.
