Dhilba Guurana - Innes National Park Coastal Wildflowers

Innes National Park at the tip of the Yorke Peninsula produces a reliable and beautiful spring wildflower display across its coastal heathlands and mallee scrub. Everlastings, trigger plants, native peas, and dozens of native orchid species colour the low heath from late August through October, while the dramatic backdrop of the Southern Ocean and the old Inneston gypsum mining village add character to a walk that is unlike anywhere else in SA. The park combines wildflowers with excellent beach fishing, leafy seadragon diving, and the ruins of the historic Inneston village for a genuinely varied destination. An underrated wildflower experience that avoids the crowds of the more famous spring destinations.
