SA -Yorke Peninsula-Wallaroo

Wallaroo is a major grain exporting centre for the area. The jetty is large and is always busy with people fishing. Unfortunaltely, the end of the jetty has been closed to the public and can only be accessed by the employees silos.
Between two of the jettys is a large swimming area which has a shark net around in the summer time. The water was lovely and warm while we were here.
There are two camping areas in town. We stayed at the Office Beach Holiday Park which is a very small park within walking distance to down town and the jetty. The amenities block was small but clean. There was an outside shower which was handy after our swim in the ocean. The fee for one night was $22.00.
There is also another park in town which is much larger and looks lovely. It is the Wallaroo North Beach Tourist Park.
They have recently built a marina in Wallaroo which has a restaurant, bottle shop and apartments. We had lunch here and it was lovely sitting watching the water. One of my favourite pastimes.
