Victor Harbour

The hills in the area sloped down towards the sea, emerald green paddocks leading to sandy beaches and azure blue waters...sounds like heaven doesn't it? We thought so anyway.

Graphite Island is just off Victor Harbour and is reached by a large jetty.  Normally you can travel across by a Percheron driven horse cart, unfortunately due to major repairs at the Victor Harbour foreshore it wasn't running while we were there.

We were also told the penguin colony was gone. Disappointed big time, let me tell you!

The weather was a bit gloomy but there was no rain which was good.

 You can see how close the island is to the mainland at Victor Harbour.

Busy place, lots of retirees down this end of the world, can see why. I was tempted to join them,.
