Nharangga name: Guubawi

Lazy days on the beach... Coobowie is a great destination for your next relaxed, easy going holiday. The beach is a top spot for swimming, fishing and relaxing, as well as making for enjoyable sandy walks.

There's beachside accommodation available, including self-contained holiday homes and a caravan park. Enjoy the friendly local welcome and slow pace.

You'll find other great coastal towns nearby, including Stansbury and Edithburgh, which both offer boat ramps and jetties. If you'd like to explore the region by foot, try the Stansbury Coastal Trail or Edithburgh Environmental Walk. It's a chance to take in some wide sea views and enjoy the birdlife.

Coobowie is fast becoming a popular tourist destination. It's just one of many Yorke Peninsula towns offering a fantastic coastal getaway. Be sure to book your accommodation early during the summer season!

Did you know: In 1838 because the area around the bay was so beautiful, the explorers assumed there must be fresh water. After travelling 40 kilometres inland and finding none, they named Coobowie, 'Deception Bay'.

The Yorke Peninsula is the traditional lands of the Narungga (Nharangga) people, who have lived on, and cared for, this country since the beginning of time. We work, live and travel on Nharannga Banggara [Country], and we take time away from those pursuits to acknowledge and pay our deep respects to the Nharangga Elders of the past and present. 

Today, it is essential that we continue to care for and protect our spectacular natural environment. Tread lightly and leave no trace. Learn more about responsible and respectful travel on Yorke Peninsula.
