30th September
From Victor Harbour, we went to Rapid Bay for a night. It was a beautiful campsite, right on the beach, surrounded by beautiful headlands. Once again, the only problem was the cold!!
The lavender on the hills behind was gorgeous!
Neighbouring Second Valley, was also very pretty. It was interesting to read about the old tramway and causeway that was once here – and how they actually managed to build it around the rocky cliffs. We also enjoyed watching a seal play with a fish he had caught, while being chased by the seagulls for it.
Cape Jervis, where the ferries go across to Kangaroo Island was nothing special, but the view looking out over the farmland and wind farm, toward Cape Jervis was lovely.
Deep Creek Conservation Park also had beautiful scenery. Tall forest, big green fields, full of kangaroos, and stunning coastline. I’d like to come back one day and stay on the park and do some long coastal walks you can do.
The drive from Rapid Bay, back toward McLaren Vale Coast was also nice today, passing by Normanville Beach and up over Myponga Reservoir, before descending back down to the coast.
