Beachport Jetty



Beachport is a small coastal holiday town on the Limestone Coast in South Australia and is located 37kms north-west of Millicent on the Southern Ports Highway (Alternate Highway One) and 80kms west of Penola. The main local industries are agriculture, viticulture, tourism, aquaculture, fishing, surfboard manufacturing and kelp fertiliser manufacturing.

One of the longest jetties (722 metre's long) in South Australia, Beachport Jetty reaches out into the waters of Rivoli Bay. Anglers keen to snare Salmon, Mullet, Mulloway and Whiting. Sandy beaches stretch around the bay offering surf, safe swimming and relaxing sunset strolls.

Beachport is an isthmus with the sea on two sides and Lake George beside it. Sandy beaches stretch around Rivoli Bay offering great surf and safe swimming, while Bowman Scenic Drive allows visitors to explore the coastal dunes offering spectacular views of the rugged coast of the Southern Ocean.
