Tour of Port Lincoln

A quick photographic tour of Port Lincoln.

The foreshore...town jetty in foreground, with Brennen Wharf and silos in background.

Looking west along the foreshore ...

and looking east

Town from the end of the jetty.

The jetty

The local joke of the year! The swimming enclose.  It took ages to build, spoilt the look of the jetty, and breaks up every time we get a northerly.

King Fish ring.

Silos as seen from the end of the jetty.

Lincoln Hotel - the largest building in town, apart from the silos.
