adelaide to ceduna road trip Page 3

It’s roughly 770–780 km from Adelaide to Ceduna via the A1/Eyre Highway, about 8–9 hours on sealed bitumen if you behave. Sensible stops: Port Augusta, Kimba (wave at the Big Galah), Wudinna, and Penong—fuel’s available but don’t treat gauges like suggestions. Avoid driving at dusk or dawn unless you fancy arguing with kangaroos and emus about right of way. Split it with an overnight in Port Augusta, Kimba or Wudinna if you’re in no mood to sprint. Phone coverage can be patchy, so pack water, a spare tyre, and a dose of patience; if you’re pushing on to the Nullarbor, stock up in Ceduna and check roadhouse hours.
