‘Park of the Month’ is an initiative that has been running across
South Australia’s national and marine parks since 2015.
It encourages people to visit, explore and connect with nature.
One park is chosen each month with a range of guided activities
and ideas of things to do for people over those 4 weeks.
Park Ranger Simon Oster at home in his ‘office’ in Deep Creek Conservation Park
Activities include ranger walks as well as activities specific to each park
such as; wildflower walks, planting days, kayaking, snorkelling, and bird watching.
For each park Nature Play SA create a ‘40 things’ to do resource, together
with 10 great ideas to encourage people to connect with parks each season.
Deep Creek will be Park of the Month in March this year with a number of events
planned including ranger guided walks, talks presented by ecologists, and yoga in the forest.
Yoga in the Park? Zen again, why not.
As part of these activities Southern Ocean Retreats is offering the chance
to win a stay at one of our properties. For further information check out

The descent to Blowhole Beach in Deep Creek Conservation Park
Although Deep Creek Conservation Park is characterized by rugged
coastal terrain the vast majority of the Park is accessible by conventional vehicle.
Yes, the unsealed roads can get a bit corrugated at times but generally, there are no issues with
access.
There are only 2 exceptions to this rule; the track from Cobbler Hill to Blow Hole Beach
and the Boat Harbour track. The descent from the top of the Cobbler Hill car park to
Blow Hole Beach offers spectacular views across Backstairs Passage towards Kangaroo Island.
Once at the car park a short walk takes you to this beautiful beach.

Similarly, the Boat Harbour track winds its way through messmate forests and
switch backs to eventually reveal a wonderful view to the Pages Islands.
A 10 minute walk leads to the secluded Boat Harbour beach
from where you can often spot dolphins cruising by.

If you would like to explore these parts of the Park but don’t own a four wheel drive we can help.
During the months of June and July we will provide complimentary transport
to either of these locations from your cottage for guests with conventional
vehicles staying with us between Sunday and Thursday.
For full terms & conditions please contact us on Tel. 8598 4169.
Your carriage awaits
