Situated in Mount Gambier, South Australia, the Limestone Coast boasts the beautiful Blue Lake as its star attraction. During November to March the lake turns to a majestic blue colour.

Mount Gambier is built on the slopes of an extinct volcano which is comprised of three craters -one of which contains the famous Lake.

The city and district also has many dry limestone caves including the famous Tantanoola and Princess Margaret Rose Caves, as well as numerous wet caves and sinkholes which are known worldwide amongst the cave diving fraternity. Some of these were used in the 3D film "Sanctum".

To the North is historic Penola and the world-famous vignerons of Coonawarra. To the South  is Port MacDonnell, Australia's Southern Rock Lobster capital and the peaceful Glenelg River.

To the East is the port of Portland and beautiful Bridgewater Bay and to the West is Millicent, with its facinating Windfarm, and the coastal towns of Beachport, Robe and Kingston.

The picturesque countryside allows enjoyable relaxing riding through grazing and cropping properties spread amongst pine forests,and bluegum plantations and scrubland.
