Encounter Bay is quite literally where history happened — named after the famous encounter between Captain Flinders and French explorer Baudin back in 1802. Now it's where Southern Right Whales roll through between May and October, and where locals get to call turquoise water and cliffside views their everyday backdrop. It's about 80 minutes from Adelaide, but it feels like another world entirely.
