Penong Travel Guide
South Australia, Australia
Penong is a very small settlement in South Australia, Australia, with a population of 215. It is a local base in a remote part of the state rather than a major urban centre, so travellers should plan their arrival and onward transport in advance.
The town is served by Penong Airport (PEY). Cactus Beach is the named nearby beach, 19 kilometres from Penong, making it the main coastal outing to consider when planning a stay.
