Encounter Bay is a lovely beachside location with easy access to the beach for walking or discovering what the coastal tides have to offer. There is plenty of parking for day visitors. It's a beach for discovery and appreciation. The sunrises are stunning. It is also a lovely place to observe several birds in their natural habitat and appreciate the protected nesting sites of the threatened Hooded Plovers. Encounter Bay is within walking distance to Victor Harbour along a dedicated coastal path, or a little more challenging walk (or drive) to the Bluff lookout. There are plenty of holiday accommodation properties in this area providing lots of different options for single to family holiday makers. Encounter Bay is the place to visit if you want to unwind and breath in the beautiful ambience, but it is also central to many other interesting Fleurieu Peninsula locations for adventure. Enjoy!

The ease of getting to the apartment, clear instructions, easy access to keys. It is a well catered propery, beds were comfortable. View was Amazing, most morning the six month old and I sat watching the boats go in and out. Plenty of Space in the 3 Bedroom Apartment on the ground level. Stairs are an issue for elderly people, but we managed. We stocked the apartment with out food and the full size fridge, dishwasher and cooking utensils made our stay easy. Only slightly noisy, but most other visitors were considerate of the noise as per the request. Pool is a bonus, not that we used it, but it was clean and very clear. Lots to do in Victor and surrounding locations.

I really enjoyed Encounter Bay.

I really enjoyed Encounter Bay. Lots of stores and the beach is gorgeous. I loved seeing the dolphins swimming and the beautiful horses and carriage. Lots to see and do and reasonable prices. A great family friendly place. Suitable for the young and the old. Can't wait to go back and hopefully stay longer
