Griffo has nailed a lot of the important stuff. However, in mentioning Caiguna... a compulsory viewing is the Great Australian Bight cliffs, at lower levels, from Caiguna Eastwards.
Also... be aware of hot, strong, Easterly/N-Easterly winds at ground level, all the way across the Nullarbor, at the time of year you've indicated. Once a strong mid-Summer, high pressure system sets up in the Bight, look out.
He's also right about the Caiguna Roadhouse food. Best steakburgers and chips you'll find anywhere across the Long Paddock.
