The SA National Trust runs the Wallaroo Heritage and Nautical Museum. The museum is bigger than it looks from the outside. The main museum building is supplemented with additional buildings holing the nautical and train displays. Their volunteers are very friendly and helpful. At $6 (or free for National Trust members) it is good value. The shop had some interesting books including one on the jetties that abound on the Yorke Peninsula. The museum abounds in local community history and enriched by personal collections and so provides an eclectic mix with the sad story of a poor immigrant who slew a magistrate, a mother who kept the tea set of her young daughter who died, sea shell constructions and a preserved squid intermixed with old telephone equipment, nautical and war displays. It is a bit overcrowded or jam packed (depending on your perspective) so one visit will probably just scratch the surface.

Long jetty with great views. Really interesting to see the conveyer belt taking grain to the ships. I love big ships and this is a great place to have a close look at them. Judging from the black stains on the jetty I imagine there's good squidding here as well, but I haven't had much luck
4. Spencer Gulf Searoad
Overall Ratings
3.0 based on 10 reviews
Spencer Gulf Searoad offers luxurious vehicle and passenger transfers across the Spencer Gulf crossing between Wallaroo on the Yorke Peninsula and Lucky Bay (near Cowell) on the Eyre Peninsula. Its a relaxing alternative to the lengthy round-gulf road trip. Skip the potholes, speeding fines and stress and take the road less sailed.

Traveled to and from the Eyre Peninsula this way. They are a “well oiled machine”, everything happened on time and efficiently. Booked online and no problem at all.
