Welcome to Whyalla 'Where the Outback Meets the Sea'. With 300+ days of sunshine per year, friendly locals and plenty to see and do Whyalla is the ideal holiday destination or place to live. Whyalla boasts spectacular outback landscapes, scenic views, vast coastline and is rich in culture and heritage. While in Whyalla why not try your hand at some of the best fishing in South Australia or take a tour on the land locked ship HMAS Whyalla.

Whatever your interests there is something in Whyalla for everyone. As one of the largest regional centres in South Australia, Whyalla has all the facilities that you would expect from a city this size. From seven day a week shopping, educational precinct, sporting facilities and the fantastic boating facilities. Whyalla really has it all. The HMAS Whyalla was a World War 2 corvette. It was the first ship built in the city of Whyalla and was named after the city. The ship was landlocked as a tourist attraction in 1987, the main attraction of the Whyalla Maritime Museum.

In the late 1990s the spectacular annual migration of the Australian Giant Cuttlefish Sepia apama to the reef areas in the Spencer Gulf north of Whyalla around Black Point and Point Lowly became recognised by international divers. It has also come to the attention of divers of Whyalla, that the same area in which the cuttlefish breed is, just a few months later, the place of congregation for squid, which also come there to breed. This has only come to the attention of locals in 2005. There are also dolphins that frequent the local marina.

The Whyalla Conservation Park provides an example of the natural semi-arid environment.
