While regional holidays have recently been given the go-ahead, most of us aren’t able to drop everything and run away into the wide-ranging beauty of South Australia immediately.
The South Australian Tourism Commission launched #SATV for this exact reason. From professional star-gazers to gin distillers, world-class chefs and shark cage divers, travel online throughout South Australia and support your favourite operator through this challenging time.
You can expect fresh video content each week so that you can learn from our tourism folk, ask questions (as if you were on tour), or “kick back” somewhere in the great outdoors.
We’ve had a look through all the #SATV episodes until now and put together a list of our favourites, sorted into categories depending on what you’re looking for — from tranquil immersion into stunning scenery to cooking classes with Adelaide’s best chefs.
Relax & Unwind
Mount Lofty Botanic Gardens in Autumn
For the majority of autumn, the Mount Lofty Botanic Gardens were tragically, yet understandably closed, which is why we turned to this magical over-head tour of the sweeping views of forests of orange, amber, red and yellow.

Swim With Wild Sea-Lions
Sea-lions are the playful puppy dogs of the sea and in South Australia, you can swim with them in the Eyre Peninsula or Kangaroo Island. This episode immerses you beneath the waves, where a bunch of sweet sea-lions frolic.
Kangaroo Island’s Remarkable Rocks
The iconic Remarkable Rocks of Kangaroo Island are still every bit as remarkable, even after the devastating bushfires earlier this year. Let this episode guide you through their grandeur.
