Information

"Major town and port at the edge of the Great Australian Bight
In a very real sense Ceduna is the solitary major township on the eastern side of the Great Australian Bight. Some 1208 km to the west lies Norseman. Between these two towns are a couple of tiny settlements - Penong and Eucla - and a number of substantial roadhouses which provide all the necessary facilities - food, accommodation and fuel - for travellers journeying across the Nullarbor Plain. But, as far as the normal definition of a town is concerned, there is nothing between Ceduna and Norseman. In this sense Ceduna is very much the last easterly stop before entering the wastelands of the Nullarbor Plain and the vast flatlands which lie to the north of the Great Australian Bight.

Ceduna is located 1964 km from Perth, 470 km from Port Augusta and 781 km north-west of Adelaide on the Eyre Highway. It is a substantial and attractive town which, with the nearby port of Thevenard, is located on Murat Bay which in turn is part of the larger Denial Bay."
