I'll let others comment on Victorian anchorages, but in SA:
From south to north:
Robe Lake Butler Marina is a small marina with a fuel dock - and Robe is a lovely town with lots of pubs and restaurants within walking distance.
Just up the coast, Cape Jaffa Anchorage Marina is a large, modern marina with all the usual marina amenities, but no town to speak of.
Victor Harbor has no all-weather anchorage, but the north shore of Granite Island is used. (Caveat: I haven't anchored here.)
Kangaroo Island has 3 all-weather anchorages: Bay of Shoals (Kingscote), Christmas Cove (Penneshaw) and American River.
Antechamber Bay is another possibly on KI that offers protection from SE thru NW winds, although can be a bit uneasy with swell.
Further afield, Kangaroo aIsland lso has a bunch of coves on the North Coast that offer protection from most directions, except northerlies.
