We stayed at the fantastic caravan park across the road. Jetty is a great place to relax and have a swim, stingrays are in the water nearby most of the day, so just be mindful of these beautiful creatures.

Marion Bay Jetty

Reviewed By bacicat1 - Adelaide, Australia

When my wife & I handed the room key in, we went for a fish on the jetty, short walk out there, short fish of 2hrs, short walk back to the car, it was windy & bit cold but there are seats/overhead covers which created a wind break, it blowed really hard the day before & the water was a bit murky, others had caught some squid, the swirl was high too but no white caps, can see plenty of potential next time, looking forward to the challenge.

This Jetty was well maintained and great to walk along. These Jetties are so old in this part of South Australia and have so much history. A real privilege to be able to visit Port Victoria.

Stansbury Jetty

Reviewed By branham2016 - Adelaide, Australia

The 308 metres long Stansbury Jetty was completed in 1905 with wheat pulled along the jetty by horse, loaded aboard small ketches and taken to Port Adelaide. A twice weekly service carrying passengers, mail and general goods started in 1910. The jetty ceased operation in 1960. This was the second jetty. An earlier was built in 1877 by an Alexander Anderson, a local land owner. The area has now been developed into a superb aquatic precinct with the jetty as the focal point. A very large car park enables easy access with several disable designated parks available. The jetty has wooden piles supported by steel piles at intervals along the jetty. The walkway is of concrete slabs which enable very easy mobility whilst on the jetty with steel guards on both sides almost to the end. To the southern side of the jetty is a small sandy are but to the north the area is very pebbly. The precinct includes toilets to the back of the car park and undercover concrete bench and seating to the northern side. Overlooking Oyster Bay is the Harbour Masters Park which includes a memorial to local community members. Initially designed to educate people on the types of native plants best suited to the local coastal conditions, it is now a picnicking area with walking paths. To the south of the jetty is the 1986 opened dual-laned boat ramp with floating boarding pontoons which is sheltered by the breakwater. A BBQ area and playground at the back of the boat ramp park complete a comprehensive aquatic precinct. I did enjoy wandering around the precinct and noting that the jetty was filling with keen fishermen/women. King George Whiting, Garfish, Mullet, Tommies and squid are popular seasonal catches with Blue Swimmer Crabs raked from the shallows or netted from the jetty or boat. The red cliffs to the north of the jetty would be a suitable for birds to nest, although I did not see any the holes along the faces would indicate this. Return? I would love to go back experience a sunrise and also explore more of this historic regional South Australian township.

Wallaroo Jetty

Reviewed By jamiebO6014TY - Adelaide, Australia

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
