Elliston sits on the sheltered waters of Waterloo Bay on the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula, offering a relaxed seaside lifestyle for its 333 residents (2021 Census). The shallow, seagrass‑lined bay and surrounding sandy beaches support swimming, fishing, abalone diving and occasional surfing, while nearby cliffs and Lake Newland Conservation Park provide scenic walks. A warm‑summer Mediterranean climate brings mild, wet winters and pleasant, breezy summers ideal for outdoor pursuits.

Local amenities include a bakery, hair salon, churches such as St Francis of Assisi, and the historic Elliston Hall with its large community mural. Education is served by Elliston Area School and accommodation ranges from two caravan parks to a motel and hotel, reflecting a mix of permanent homes and holiday stays.
