The spotlight is shining down on Lake MacDonnell this month as one of the world's largest online fashion retailers, Pretty Little Thing, will use this watermelon water as its 1km fashion runway - the longest ever catwalk. With some of Australia's biggest models and Instagram influencers flocking to these strawberry shores in November, we thought we'd share our top picks of South Australia's most Instagrammable spots in South Australia.
1. Lake MacDonnell, Eyre Peninsula
For vast expanses of shimmering baby pink waters, you don't need to go crazy in Photoshop. South Australia is home to some of the world's most vibrant pink lakes, stunning travellers with their dreamlike hues from the outback to the ocean. Set against the famed turquoise waters of the Eyre Peninsula, Lake MacDonnell's bubble gum shores have to be seen to be believed. Here, Mother Nature's full palette is on show with a super-high salt concentration resulting in some seriously intense colours. At the end of this road lies Eyre Peninsula's beautiful Cactus Beach: an oceanic wonderland, drawing surfers from across the world to its powerful breaks and Southern Ocean swells. Bordered by pinks and blues, the road between is a nature-made perfect runway. Happy strutting Pretty Little Thing!
