A winery long lunch
Settle in for a good old-fashioned long lunch at one of the region's many fantastic wineries. The best part? Being able to sample a few wines before settling on a bottle (or two) to go with lunch, then being able to clamber back into your camper to retire for the evening.
Penthouse views

Deep sea fishing
Head out to deep water with someone who knows what they're doing. Find a fishing charter operator with plenty of experience, someone who knows the area well and hopefully before too long you'll be reeling in something delicious to cook up on the campervan BBQ for dinner!
