Looking for a salt lake in South Australia? The headline act is Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre, Australia’s largest salt pan—usually a blinding white crust, occasionally a vast inland sea after big rains.
For colour, there’s Lake Bumbunga near Lochiel and Lake MacDonnell near Penong, which can turn fairy-floss pink thanks to algae and minerals, plus stark white edges for that lunar selfie.
Lake Hart near Woomera is another classic, shimmering beside the Stuart Highway like someone spilled half of the pantry’s table salt.
Conditions change with weather, so check access, road closures, and permits, and for the love of tyres, avoid driving on a wet crust unless you fancy a salty bogging.
