South Australia is known for its diverse wildlife and arid areas. Adelaide Zoo is a must-visit attraction in the state. The zoo attracts tourists for its cute inhabitants, such as pandas, quokkas, and meerkats. Flinders Chase National Park is the perfect spot for hiking and picnicking. Its unique rock formations will take your breath away. Seal Bay Conservation Park on Kangaroo Island is known for its large Australian sea lion colony. A trip to this state would be incomplete without tasting its world-class vino. Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale are popular wine-producing areas. You’ll never run out of accommodation options too, from secluded cabins, if you want a tranquil ambiance, to beach house rentals if you want to have fun under the sun. Traveling with pets is also possible in South Australia. Read on to find out the best pet-friendly Airbnb vacation rentals in South Australia.
