With a population barely above 2000, this sleepy village offers a genuine escape into wild, windswept beauty. The nearby Waitpinga and Boomer Beach are renowned for powerful surf and dramatic cliffs, while the serene Inman River meanders through reed-fringed wetlands to the sea. Kayakers paddle its calm waters, and birdwatchers spot spoonbills and pelicans. The town's unpretentious charm extends to its handful of cafés and the local general store, where you'll find warm country hospitality. History buffs can explore the ruined whaling stations and heritage-listed cottages. By night, the sky erupts with stars; by day, you can hike the Heysen Trail or simply watch the waves roll in. Hayborough is not for those seeking nightlife or luxury resorts—it's for travellers craving untouched nature, solitude, and the raw, salty rhythm of the Australian coast. Pack layers, bring a sense of adventure, and prepare to fall into the slow, hypnotic pace of beachside life.",[10,13],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","000",{"key":14,"value":12},"Ambulance",[16,19,22,25,28,31,34,37,40,43,46,49],{"key":17,"value":18},"Do I need a visa for Australia?","Most visitors need an eVisitor (subclass 651) for EU citizens or ETA (Electronic Travel Authority) for others.
