Caiguna Accommodation, Hotels, Tours & Information

Caiguna

Caiguna is located on the Eyre Highway and is a good spot to pick up petrol and food before or after the long drive across the Nullarbor. Between Balladonia and Caiguna is the '90 mile straight' - the longest straight stretch of road in Australia. There is a sign marking the beginning and provides an excellent opportunity to park near it and take a photo. Just five kilometres west of Caiguna, and a short distance off the highway, you can experience the air blowhole. It is well signposted with a short detour off the main highway to reach it. Cool air escapes through the hole from the caverns and caves underground. South of the town is Nuytsland Nature Reserve, a pretty area bounded by sheer cliffs fronting the Southern Ocean. For trivia buffs, the Caiguna Roadhouse was built to assist traffic crossing for the Commonwealth Games in Perth. The motel provides 24 hour essential services and accommodation for travellers on the Eyre Highway.
